With that said, there is a mailing list about nonfiction called
NonFictionChat. NonFictionChat is not a readers advisory list specifically,
but it does cover all sorts of nonfiction topics. Here's a description:
A friendly environment where lovers of
non-fiction can discuss books, authors,
bookstores, and just about anything
related to non-fiction. This list was
created to parallel another popular
mailing list called FictionChat.
To join, go to http://www.egroups.com and search for NonFictionChat (no
spaces). You'll have to join eGroups to actually subscribe to it, but it's
free to join and easy to sign up.
