The Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction longlist was announced this week (link in comments below). Nuclear War by Annie Jacobsen is the only one I‘ve read so far (definitely recommend) and tagged (692 pages!) is the one I‘m going to get started on next. Barbara Demick says it is “fascinating, essential reading.” I‘ve been wanting to read Nguyen‘s memoir since it came out and was already planning to get Question 7. I also ordered Melting Point.

Oh, and looking at the spelling on the cover of my copy vs the UK edition, I'm realizing that judgement/judgment is one of those words that are spelled differently in American English vs British English. How have I not noticed that before? I'm from the US and I've always spelled it the British way--judgement. Interesting. 4mo
