I haven’t read many, but one that I really enjoyed was Finding Fish: The Autobiography of Antwonne Fischer. Made into a movie starting Denzel Washington.
Endurance: A Year in Space, A Lifetime of Discovery by Scott Kelly. An Astronaut’s Guide to Life on Earth by Chris Hadfield (really cool reading those two close together). Failure Is Not An Option by Gene Kranz (the guy who as the Flight Director for, among other things, the first moon landing and when Apollo 13 exploded).
A PAGE TURNER!! Check out, Life with My Idiot Family A True Story of Survival, Courage and Justice over Childhood Sexual Abuse written by wife and husband Kathy & Gary Picard, Award Winning book now being put into a screen play! Kathy helped to change MA Criminal and Civil SOL Laws. http://amzn.to/2ulBT3y

Educated, by Tara Westover.
‘Tis by Frank McCourt
The Glass Castle by Jeanette walls
The Meditations of Marcus Aurelius
“Between the Word and Me” by Ta-Nehisi Coates. This book convinced me that institutionalized racism still exist inside the US.
Look up Dave Pelzer, Frank McCourt and Walter Anderson-these are great for me! (These are authors’ name btw)

Marcus Aurelius “Meditations”, always returning to me.
The Autobiography of a Face by Lucy Grealy
