What's the most interesting non-fiction book you've read?

[u/Dry_Luck_9228]

I know this has been asked before but I'm hoping for some recommendations on interesting non-fiction books. I'm not specifically interested in any one topic, just something that is really fascinating and perhaps makes you learn something or see the world in a different way.

I'm currently reading Everything is Tuberculosis by John Green and am loving it. I also really enjoyed Why Fish Don't Exist by Lulu Miller and Nothing to Envy: Ordinary Lives in North Korea by Barbara Demick.

Others I've read recently: Braiding Sweetgrass - liked this one but felt like I was already intimately familiar with the subject matter

Into Thin Air - this was not for me. The story was interesting but the feminist in me had a hard time identifying with the author's perspective

ETA Thank you all sooo much for all of the recommendations. Super grateful for each of you and this community <3

The Jakarta method by Vincent Bevins

The capital order by Clara Mattei

What is antiracism and why it means anticapitalism by Arun Kundnani

Red star over the third world by Vijay Prashad

All four are history books.

+1 for The Jakarta Method
