Hello Readers! For Non-Fiction in March there was: 16 reviews, 13 reviewers, and 15 books reviewed (4 poetry). Excitingly, 8 of the books reviewed this month were completely new to the AWW database. So a big thank you! The most prolific reviewer was: Tegan Edwards (me 😱) with 3 books reviewed. The most reviewed title this month was: The Husband Poisoner (2021) by Tanya Bretherton which was reviewed twice. As always, click on the coloured quote from a review to be taken directly to it. And a quick reminder: this round up includes poetry submissions despite their not being non-fiction. It just came out in the wash that way! Perhaps one day we’ll have enough poetry reviews to give them their own round up (it’s not wishful thinking, I swear).

Being Non-Fiction November there was, as can be expected, an array of titles and subject matters covered in this month’s reviews. It was great to see. I’ve highlighted a few in particular from each general non-fiction category that appeared and it speaks to the broadness and diversity of the genre, ranging from the literary to books about climate change to self-help titles.
