Biography

[Way2crazy]

I need to find a biography to read by Jan 5. I was wondering if any of you knew any interesting biographies or people I could read about.
I don't want to read about George Washington again...

Have A Nice Day: A tale of blood and sweatsocks by Mick Foley.

John Adams (I know cliche) but he's my fav pres. also Abbigale Adams is WAY interesting...she was NOT the typical woman for the times.

Glass Castle by Jennette Walls

SUCH an amazing story about a unique woman's life

John Adams by David Mcullough (spelling?)
As said above, he was a very interesting person, as was his wife, Abigail.

Eleanor of Aquitaine by Alison Weir
Eleanor was really a fascinating woman. She could in some ways be considered a medieval pioneer for women's rights. She was a woman of power in a man's world. Weir is an excellent author, you might also try her Elizabeth I.

If neither of those are your thing, Winston Churchill also tends to make for an interesting read.

Thanks for the ideas! I still don't know which one to choose yet though...

She's Not There by Jennifer Finney Boylan is AWESOME! Maybe I love it because a lot of my BFFs are transsexuals. It's hysterically funny though.
