One Year in a LifeIf seems as though many authors are taking a year of their life to undertake some sort of project. Throughout the year they write down their progress, their thoughts, their struggles, and what they learned in the end. By reading these types of books, we can live vicariously through the authors and experience their projects. From living the Bible to living with the land, these memoirs are an interesting kind of nonfiction that is often hard to put down.
Here's a sampling of 365 day titles:
No Impact Man : Living with as little impact on the environment as possible
A Year of Living Biblically : Following biblical laws and traditions
