Finding Me: A Memoir | Viola Davis
post image

#NewYearNewBooks

When I search for authors my age, J.K. Rowling & Nicholas Sparks pop up first, but I‘m going with Viola Davis for today‘s #ByAuthorYourAge prompt. She‘s an EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony) winner & her memoir (tagged) is in my Audible TBR (hopefully #Roll100 will push me to read it this year) & she has a children‘s book spinoff of Corduroy the bear.

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Great choice!! 11mo
Eggs I adore Viola🩷🩷 11mo
Smrloomis Oh my gosh the audio is so so great! Such a tough read in spots but definitely worth it!! 11mo

I can't say that I agree with her politics per se, but I sure do love the world she created in HP.

JenniferEgnor Same!!! Those books will always be special to me. 11mo

dabbe @Bookwomble I am sorry to have named her, but she's the only one I could find who's my age and who I've read! 🤓 11mo
Bookwomble @dabbe Please don't apologise for posting in your own feed 💖. I only made my comment because you said you don't agree with her politics. I find it ironic that JKR has so much in common with the villain of her own books, but I suppose, in a way, that's to be expected. 11mo
Faranae Here's a list of authors born the same year. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1965_in_literature May I suggest Eoin Colfer? He also writes children's and YA fantasy fiction, and he's not a bigot campaigning to erase my existence. If you haven't read him, you'd probably enjoy his work if you enjoy HP! Perhaps this is a chance to explore new-to-you authors.

Much older, but Diane Duane wrote magic school books and is a lovely person.

CaliforniaCay I'm also still a fan and will always be, despite being an LGBTQ ally and not agreeing with her politics 💛💜💚 11mo
dabbe @Bookwomble Too true, and thanks. 💜🩶💜 11mo
dabbe @Faranae Thanks for the link. The only other author I've read is Nicholas Sparks, so yes, time for some new authors with kindness towards EVERY one. Thanks for your suggestions, too. 💜🩶💜 11mo

Different vibes from each Bill Bryson I've been listening to #ByAuthorYourAge. Many memories in 1950sThunderbolt are mine, One Summer was a fascinating, well researched history centered on happenings around 1927. At Home is about the development & innovations, inspired by the Victorian parsonage where his family was living in England. Being iced-in "at home" this week makes this the one to tag for #NewYearNewBooks @eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Eggs Great collection 🙌🏻🙌🏻 11mo
Aims42 These are my favorite Bill Bryson books too 😍 I also loved “A Walk in the Woods” 11mo
Daisey I need to pick up more of his books sometime. All of these sound interesting. 11mo
lynneamch Yes @Aims42 That one made a fan many years ago listening on a road trip. 11mo
