Looking for new books to read as I am preparing to head out on a much needed vacation and want to dig into some good reading. Can be fiction or nonfiction, just so long as it hooked you and made you want to keep reading and reading until the end.

Here are a few nonfiction books I couldn't stop reading and ultimately finished in a couple of days. They might be a little niche, but I'd recommend them for everyone.

  • "Tranny" by Laura Jane Grace (autobiography by the lead singer of the band Against Me!)

  • "Where You'll Find Me" by Ty Gagne (story and analysis of a woman who died hiking New Hampshire's White Mountains in winter)

  • "This Land" by Christopher Ketcham (kind of one big reported essay on how big industry and cowboy culture are destroying the American West)
