Reading More Non-Fiction in 2021! - hosted by litficwithellie

A book on a topic you've never read about before
By "never read about" I mean specifically "never read a book about this topic"/"never read hundreds of articles" so use your discretion! If you've read an article or two then go for it, this prompt is meant to help introduce you to a new topic, so if you think your past introduction then try to pick a different subject!
