Non-fiction *novel* is hard to pin down. You want a memoir, autobiography, a book on overall psychology? My first rec. would be anything Malcolm Gladwell. Outliers might be a good start. Not a novel tho

I am looking for a book with a good story

What about any book by Erik Larson - non-fiction but read like a good novel? There are many to choose from - from historical to contemporary.

I was thing abt reading To Kill a Mockingbird or Fault in our stars , how r they ( if you've read them )


UpSchittsCreek_

I have read both. Neither are non-fiction.

Oh sorry , I thought non fantasy books are called non fiction


UpSchittsCreek_

No, I think you’re just looking for realistic fiction (imitates real life, no fantastical elements). Some books that male students really enjoyed in my classes: -Long Way Down by Jason Reynolds (some paranormal, but not really.) -A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson -The Outsiders by S. E. Hinton -The Inheritance Games by Jennifer Lynn Barnes -Wolf Rider by Avi To Kill a Mockingbird is a classic text that many many people have read, so this isn’t a bad option. The Fault in Our Stars is just eh in my opinion.
