This is simply MUST-SEE BookTube. Your nonfiction recommendations have broadened my world, let alone my reading life. Thanks, Steve!

This is one of the best videos I’ve seen in quite a while: the enthusiasm, the brief but intriguing intros to the books; just great.

Steve, this is one of the most impressive videos I've ever watched on booktube. I hope you drank plenty of water after filming this!

Two hours of nonfiction recommendations? Wonderful. Thank you Sir.

Thank you for this! It's been so cool to see more of the kinds of books you're interested in, and of course, there are some absolute gems here.

I made my peace a long time ago with the reality that I am never going to read ALL the books, but these videos make it sooooo hard. I'm still recovering from the last one, but managed to snag a copy of Avivah Gottlieb Zornberg's book on Genesis based on your recommendation.

My tbr list is so ridiculous from watching this channel

Whee, wonderful non- fiction, this is the sort of video that makes my day, and for months a wonderful reading life. You are a star, Steve. You seem happier today, I hope that is so. It's been a grim news week.

This is an absolute treasure!

Amazing list! Thank you, Steve. ❤

INCREDIBLE! Thank you Steve for doing this for us! My TBR just exploded!

Thank you for the recommendations... 🙏🏾😃✨

Thank you for making this. So many interesting recommendations.

Brilliant! thank you.

To describe this guy's knowledge of the subject matter is a gift to us all .Not good English l know but cannot find the right sentiments...

Wow!! Thank you for this amazing video!!

A Night to Remember is free for Audible members!

I had more than 2800 books on my wishlist anyway, and then you come along with this video!

I’m really impressed by the variety of genres here even though I suppose some themes come up again and again (e.g. biography, travelogue, natural history) but I will just comment on the Dinosauria because I was especially surprised to see something that technical on here. I’ve been interested in animals and science all my life and read it when I was relatively young, and I had trouble understanding a lot of the terminology (though it’s so massive even understanding 10% will give you a lot of info). I now work as a postdoc in evolutionary biology and often think of evo bio books I’ve read and loved but in retrospect I have to remember that the Dinosauria itself was probably one of the main books that convinced me of the truth of evolution. I can remember still a figure showing the gradual reduction of dinosaur fingers to the single finger of bird wings. For many people the book may have far too much detail on the minutiae of morphology for every dinosaur family under the sun but that sheer detail really gave me the ability to wrap my head around the dinosaur-bird transition and I suppose having that one clear example made me understand the process more generally.
