My Favorite TV Shows
My Favorite Books (Memoirs)
You might have seen my favorite personal development books which I shared before. But in the last few months, I have read a lot of memoirs. The first one was Rita Marley’s No Woman, No Cry where she describes her life with Bob Marley and truthfully, the book left me with very mixed feelings. Nonetheless, I still wanted to read more memoirs. So I went ahead and read Gabrielle Union, Tiffany Haddish, Trevor Noah and Michelle Obama’s memoirs.
The Last Black Unicorn by Tiffany was a good one because it feels very authentic. But of all the memoirs I have read, these 2 topped the list for me:
Born A Crime
- Born A Crime by Trevor Noah deals with serious issues but it has a touch of humor that makes it easy to read. To call it a good book would be an understatement. I highly recommend that you read this one.
Becoming
- Becoming by Michelle Obama – I have to admit that it wasn’t the easiest book to read. There is a lot that is covered. But, it was so relatable and so full of hope that I ended up absolutely loving it.
