To close out our first year in podcasting, your Book XChange hosts offer a two-part series of episodes highlighting our favorite non-fiction and fiction titles of 2020. As always with our show, titles are not limited to those released in 2020 - they could be from any era, as long as they were read by one of us this year. Part 1 covers non-fiction: we each choose one book that stood out during our year in reading, and get a little more in-depth about why it stood out. In our next episode, we'll cover our favorite fiction reads of the year. As the year comes to a close, we want to sincerely thank all of you listeners who gave a little of their time to listen and read along with us this year, we've greatly appreciated all the feedback and support. Happy Holidays/Merry Christmas/Happy New Year to you all!
