I’m gonna say my top non fiction books are:

The Narnia series, who knew that lions could be found in seemingly ordinary closets! Wow!

Harry Potter series, if I had known about hogwarts before i went to college I would definitely have applied there.

And then probably Wikipedia, man there is a lot of info on that book

You really can’t trust Wikipedia as a true non fiction source. People make stuff up in there all the time.

Same with Harry Potter. I don’t say it’s all made up but we have only one source and a biased one at best. She’s a literal terf. Don’t believe anything she says.
