I’ll go first ✋


I love reading autobiographies, and recently just finished up Born a Crime by Trevor Noah. 10/10 recommend, it is hands down one of my all-time favorite autobiographies.

    Loving the inspiration on this thread! Hard to choose one... here are a few standouts than come to mind:

    • The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah ( The story of two sisters in France, during the second World War) 
    • HoneyBee by Craig Silvey (A gritty but beautifully written coming-of-age book covering a number of issues: self-acceptance, trans, relationships etc - contemporary Australian)
    • The Uncaged Sky by Kylie Gilbert-Moore (The true story of an Australian woman's  fight & resilience to survive 804 days of being unfairly imprisoned in Iran).

    The Stand Stephen King. @S_K I see you!!

    It's been a favorite since I was a kid, and I reread it from time to time still. I probably read every Stephen King book at some point in time!

    Great question, thanks @crchan123 !

    Is it abnormal to fall asleep to The Shining audio book? Campbell Scott is a great narrator!

    One of my favorite series of all time is Wings of Fire. Great mix of action and character development.
