1. history of music
2. famous African-American people
3. medicine
4. Vietnam war
5. European Union
6. marine biology
7. public transport
8. architecture
9. 17th-18th century

Have fun reading :)

This is great! I struggle with nonfiction and I’m a few chapters in on about five of these categories. Please hit me with a random category and thanks!

Okay, that sounds fun, and the first 11 categories quite interesting already. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that #12 is not too weird... 🤞

I read a lot of non-fiction generally but this list of topics is much wider than I normally focus on, so I'd love to take part.

Please hit me with a topic! #PolymathReadingChallenge

1894 (as in, the year)

Hmm. Lots of books on periods beginning or ending in 1894, the beginning of the end of the Romanovs, but not so many dedicated to that year alone. But with the start of the Dreyfus affair, the first Sino-Japanese war, and lots of class struggle, it shouldn’t be too hard to find something.

this 12th topic is free to be interpreted loosely :) as you said, it can be a beginning or an ending, or included in a longer topic.

And I’ve got eleven months 🙂
