message 1: by Crystal, Don't let the Muggles get to you (new)

There are a whole lot of topics on this group for all the fiction books. I love fiction and read a whole lot more of it than nonfiction, but a good nonfiction book (or a bad one) is still a book worthy to be talked about.

I picked up at the beginning of August my first nonfiction book that I'm sure is the only one I've bought with a purpose other than school because it was about a topic I am interested in and sounded intriguing (and it is). The book is called Chasing New Horizons: Inside the First Epic Mission to Pluto. The authors go pretty in depth giving a behind-the-scenes look at the mission, and it by no means boring. They relate the information well and have some jokes sprinkled throughout. They don't go through all the math and stuff like that, which I appreciate, because even though I like math, the book may have been dry. I'm not done with it yet (I've been reading it pretty slowly and savoring it), but it's been a phenomenal nonfiction book.
