I’ve been on an all romance all the time reading spree.  I always find those hard to read about especially when I’m reading series. “Yep, same author. Nope, can’t talk plot because it is spoilers for the last 5 books.â€
Here are my current non romance reads.
“Known in health care circles for his ability to turn around ailing hospitals, Dr. David Shulkin was originally brought into government by President Obama to save the beleaguered Department of Veterans Affairs. When President Trump appointed him as secretary of the VA, Shulkin was as shocked as anyone.
Yet this surprise was trivial compared to what Shulkin encountered as secretary: a team of political appointees devoted to stopping anyone — including the secretary himself — who stood in the way of privatizing the agency and implementing their political agenda. In this uninhibited memoir, Shulkin opens up about why the government has long struggled to provide good medical care to military veterans and the plan he had to solve these problems. This is a book about the commitment we make to the men and women who risk their lives fighting for our country, how the VA was finally beginning to live up to it, and why the new administration may now be taking us in the wrong direction.”
I bought this book for my husband since he has a lot of opinions on the VA. He finished it and I’m going to read it before we talk about it.
I’m not going to put the blurb about this audiobook. I went into it blind. I knew I loved The Night Circus so I just decided to trust the author and listen. I think that was the right choice. I’m not all the far in but I’m loving the confusion that came from starting with no idea what was going on.

Your nonfiction read sounds like an important read, I’ve always been horrified by your country’s healthcare failures for vets and citizens alike.
Wishing you a great reading week
I have a copy of The Starless Sea. Like you I’ll be going into it blind. My weekly update
I couldn’t do that with a book. I need some idea of what is going on before I can get into a book. I hope you do enjoy The Starless Sea. I know what you mean about reading a series. It is so hard to tell people about your book without catching them up on the whole backstory. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
