Default So, I have started reading a bunch of Autobiographies.

Okay, not a whole lot, but man, I am really digging this genre.

So, I have found, thus far, that Autobiographies are within this following range.

A- This is my life. It always was, is, and always will be wonderful.

B- This is my life. I am very successful, buy my life is terrible, this is how I improve it every single day.

BTW, this is my favorite kind of read.

C- This is a small portion of my life that you may be interested in reading.

So this is what I have read, with a quick review.

Travels by Michael Chrichton--- This is IMO one of the worst authors I have ever read. But this book is soooooo good. Here, Chrichton explores all aspects of himself, from spirituality to just plain general knowledge. He travels the world seeking out knowlege. Type B.

Nickle and Dimed by Barbara Erenhieght (spelling?)--- Barb gives herself a challenge: To try and work a low- wage job, make rent and feed herself every day. She fails at all three attempts. Although I once lived this life of poverty, the statistics and her story are still shocking. Pure honesty. Type C

Underneath it all by Traci Lords--- Reading this one about the infamouse kiddy porn actress and how she evolved into a "real" actress, and how she copes with her life and childhood. Type B.

Pretty Good for a Girl by Tina Basich--- About her adventures in Snowboarding. Doesn't say too much other than to live to the fullest. Type A.

Sigreid and Roy--- The magicians go back and forth writing a few pages at a time. They have led an interesting life. Type A or B, not too sure.

David Blaine--- Very good book about his life, and his views as a magician. Full of interesting tidbits about stuff in general.

And yes I did read Postively Fifth Street and Moneymaker.

I think I am going to check this next one out: "The Presidents Daughter," I am not sure who it is by, but it is about D. Eisenhour's (?) affair with the author. Should be f fun read.

And yes, I will pick up the Annie Duke story, why not?
