This week’s musing asks…Other than for school, do you read books to learn how to do something? What was/were the topic(s)?
I read a lot of fiction but if I need to know more about a subject then I look for books that will help. I do a lot of gardening and have a large gardening library. I used to do a lot of cooking and until recently I had a large cookbook collection. That went to a my local library's used book store . I am retired and love to travel so I buy or check out books to get information before I visit. I read a lot of historical fiction and I like to read nonfiction to see how accurately the author uses the historical background. Occasionally I do review a nonfiction book on my blog.

cookbooks and gardening books are a good choice. I like the historical fiction better than the real stuff.

Yes, reading about the places you go before travelling is a great idea :)
