Awesome list! I’d love to recommend adding They Called Us Enemy by George Takei. It’s his memoir covering Japanese-American internment during WW2.
Thank you so much for the recommendation!
This is such a great list! I love graphical non-fiction.
Thank you! :)
these are all such great recs!!!!! brittle joints by maria sweeney was such a lovely read for me last summer.
Thank you so much! I’m looking forward to reading that one soon
Thanks so much for this list. I never really considered graphic novels for nonfiction topics I’d otherwise be wary of because of my reaction in the past and what it brought up for me. Hopefully it will be helpful in making some steps back into certain topic for me.💛 ☺️
thank you for your comment! 😄
i frankly never considered graphical non-fiction as an option but i LOVE it
Yay so glad 💕
Love this list! I've been wanting to read more non fiction in general and graphic novels is such a fun way 😊 I saw a biography on Angela Davis called Ms. Davis at a local library the other day that I'm interested in checking out 👀
Amazing!!! That looks like a great book! Added to the list.
