From the hottest celebrities to historical figures to people I had never even heard of...memoirs have been a popular genre recently.
Why not set your chick lit, mysteries and crime thrillers aside for a bit, and try some non-fiction?
Here are a few I've enjoyed in the past few months:
My Lucky Life in and Out of Show Business by Dick Van Dyke
Sheepish: Two Women, Fifty Sheep, and Enough Wool to Save the Planet by Catherine Friend
Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns) by Mindy Kaling
Bossypants by Tina Fey
The Dirty Life: A Memoir of Farming, Food, and Love by Kristin Kimball
Life is Not a Stage by Florence Henderson
Here are a few more that I have on my list to read:
A Stolen Life by Jaycee Lee Dugard
My Year with Eleanor by Noelle Hancock
Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother by Amy Chua
Blood, Bones and Butter by Gabrielle Hamilton
Happy Reading!
