Oh absolutely… one reason is what you said about limited reading time and wanting to use it on something that informs and educates. But the bigger reason for me is that I connect almost all stories (fiction) to my own life and everything, except maybe sci-fi and fantasy, makes me emotional and sad. Nonfiction, especially pop science, feels straightforward and safe.
