This memoir reflects a lot of the joie de vivre and personality you'll see of Van Ness in his tv and social media appearances but also deals with a lot of tough topics with a lot of honesty and flair, including sexual abuse, STIs, addiction, and so on--which may be surprising to some readers and/or difficult for them to hear. Audiobook especially good.

This book is a real page turner written in many ways like a mystery being unveiled. Beautiful writing style, deeply self reflective. Excellent read for a trip.

This book makes for a good read for a summer trip. You can breeze through it very quickly. I particularly recommend the audio book for hearing the author's narrative view. Well structured to draw reader into the author's anxiety/plight brought on by this friendship.

Dr. Nadine Lavoie works in a lockdown psychiatric hospital. As she helps a woman who has attempted suicide she comes to terms with her own traumatic childhood. Good storyline, good characters.

One of the best nonfiction books I have ever read. Reads like a thriller. Amazing research. Avoids judgment of characters in favor of making you care about them as people using thoughtful details. Makes nuclear physics accessible to the reader. A harrowing ride.

A great look at the history of the Memphis Zoo. Great pictures and tons of info found here!

Amy Engel writes a really good mystery. Her characters, like Eve, have grit and gumption. She relys on herself to find her daughters killer.
