My wish list is mainly history, biography, and other non-fiction cultural studies type books, in case anyone has a good inventory of these titles.

 

Thanks,

 

Chip

I love those kinds of books as well. You  may want to check out the forums for those types of books, and you'll find that meeting other PBSers with the same kinds of likes will help you gather book recommendations.

Also, check out the Book Bazaar forum.

I have quite a few books in those catagories. You may have them on a 2 for 1 special.

I think we may be twins, separated at birth.  I have some of the same books on my WL, some on my TBR pile and have read some of the other books you have listed. Just added some of yours to my WL, too, LOL.

Since you have Salt listed, you may want to look into Nathaniel's Nutmeg by Giles Milton, if you haven't already read it.  It was really good!

Chris, check out your bookshelf, which I was just doing.  You have a book with the cover image showing Real Kicking, but it shows next to it that the book is Brave New World.  That needs to be editted.
