Save the Cat! Writes a Novel: The Last Book On Novel Writing You'll Ever Need | Jessica Brody

I guess I‘m more excited about the books than she is 🥰 Have to say, writing novels is so much fun and rewarding (and frustrating at times).

Nonfiction Matters: Reading, Writing, and Research in Grades 3-8 | Stephanie Harvey

#MonthlyNonfiction is back for 2026!

Read at least one nonfiction book each month. 12 nonfiction books in the year. Optional bonus prompts available for extra books and tracking by Dewey category.

Everyone welcome!

Very low key… dip in and out as your schedule allows. Read through all the Dewey categories if you‘d like… or just read whatever nonfiction books spark your interest.

Tagging those already on the 2026 list. 😀

IriDas I would like to join. 1w

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick I've been updating Goodreads a bit, adding some books that I have acquired, deleting those added to my TBR because I entered a giveaway 11 years ago, eliminate duplicates, and all that jazz. I've noted some of the non- fiction books that I own and found their DDN. I have something for a majority of the categories. Now, can I stick with it? 😁 1w

Texreader This is awesome! Please include me. Not sure I can do it every month but I‘ll try. I love nonfiction 1w

TimEW Add me to the list please. I‘m a slow reader, but I like the idea of picking out a read from each category. 1w

TheAromaofBooks Yay!!! 1w

do-re-mi @julieclair, just double checking, do the non-fiction books need to be read in order, starting with Generalities? I'm not really good about sticking to strict monthly themes anymore. I guess it's the reading rebel in me. 🙂 🙂 🙂 7d

julieclair @Lauredhel @peanutnine @rockpools Yay! Glad you‘re back for another year! 😀 5d

julieclair @ChaoticMissAdventures Glad you‘re joining us! 25% nonfiction is a good goal. 5d

julieclair @Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick I admire you for cleaning up your Goodreads. I need to do the same with my Litsy and StoryGraph lists. I love that you already have books for most of the categories! I bet your newly organized list will help you stick with it! 😃 5d

julieclair @Texreader Hooray! Glad you‘re joining! This is a very low-key challenge. Dip in and out as your schedule allows. 5d

julieclair @TimEW Welcome! So glad you‘re with us! Read at your own pace. This is a very easygoing challenge. 😀 5d

julieclair @do-re-mi Some people like to read the books in order, but you can read the books in any order you like. You don‘t even have to read one from every category. Just pick a nonfiction book you‘d like to read each month, and that‘s it! 😃 5d

AnishaInkspill @julieclair thank you, that's really good to know, next year I'm going to read the easier Stephen Hawking book. Not sure how this will go but just doing it.
