I was wondering the same thing.
Quoting SusanTheWriter:
Do you mean books on education or general nonfiction based on our interests? -
Recently, the non-fiction stuff I've read relates to the course I'm teaching this semester. I'm re-reading the essays I assigned to my class and reviewing other scholarly materials for my lectures. Additionally, my book group's current selection is a non-fiction title, which is a nice change of pace.

Other than DD's textbooks so I know what's coming up, I tend not to read a lot of non-fiction.
The one I remember most was The Honest Courtesan, which was a biography of a real courtesan in 16th v Venice. -
Right now in my spare time ( what there is of it) im reading war and remeberence... About ww 2. It is fiction based on what happened during the war, so its been very interesting. Im about 200 pages in, with aout 250 to go. Right now, the germans are storming poland. ;)

I was debating whether to assign a chapter of this for my class this semester (I ultimately decided against). But a student was quite interested in the topic of courtesans in the Renaissance and she did her presentation (and her research paper) on it. Veronica Franco was a very interesting woman, to say the least.

I wrote a (not very good) short/novella about a Venetian courtesan. The research was great! I only wish the story had been better. *gg*
