Couldn't narrow this down to just 10, but here is the best of the non-fiction I read this year. The sleeper hit was Secret City, super interesting history of LGBT people in the federal government over the entire history of DC.

TW Violence against women and historical malfeasance. I’d been watching King and Conqueror (BBC) and actually fairly enjoying it. Then the writers decided that they needed some a-historical violence against women and had Edward the Confessor beat his mother (Emma) to death with his crown. 1/2
