The history section at my local Barnes and Noble looks like it has a lot of books on Egypt that are either pop-history or written by conspiracy theorists. I’m studying history in college but I like to read about it in my free time so I’m looking for some suggestions
Yeah, B&N is not very good when it comes to ancient history, unfortunately. Check out the ancient Egypt section of the AskHistorians reading list.
Additionally, I provided some suggestions for daily life in Egypt here and on Egyptian religion here.
The History of Egypt podcast is excellent, although it's only up to the Amarna period (ca. 1350-1330 BCE) and thus has a long way to go.
