Hi there! As I mentioned, I’ve been in a reading slump for about 4 months , and the last books I read that I loved, as I mentioned, were Sister, Maiden, Monster and I’m Glad My Mom Died.
I generally love horror, and I apparently really enjoy biographies. I also read Steve Martin’s biography Born Standing Up a few months ago, and really enjoyed it.
I haven’t been able to find a book I really love since then. I feel guilty just wasting time on my phone when I could be reading something, anything else worthwhile.
If it’s anything, I enjoy horror, comedy, and true crime/ CSI/ forensic sciences, biographies, and anthropology.
In the past, I’ve read Mary Roach’s Stiff and Gulp, both were fantastic. I can’t recall the title , but I’ve read a book on the Body Farm and CSI/ Forensics (it’s been like…20 years though, so I don’t recall the title), and thoroughly enjoyed those.
If you have any suggestions, please let me know, and thank you very much!

Patricia Cornwell. Kay Scarpetta is a medical examiner. Old but good series. The 5th is even called The Body Farm. The later ones got kinda lame but the first 7 or so are great. The first three are fantastic.
Bossypants by Tina Fey and pretty much all the SNL women’s bios including Amy Poehler. Mindy Kaling’s bio. Al Franken’s books are also old but the Fox News one would be interesting to read again now days.
If you like Mary Roach, as I do, you may like journalist David Carr’ bio and some of his articles you can google. His daughter is documentarian Erin Lee Carr and has her own bio out that is on my list.
