Alex Unabridged | Adventures in Genre Episode Four | April is for Autobiography and Memoir! @alex_unabridged | Uploaded May 2023 | Updated October 2024, 57 minutes ago.
Hey folks, it's time for the fourth episode in my monthly series, Adventures in Genre, where I pick a genre that I've either never read before, or that I'm wildly under-read on, and give a few books a go!

April found me dipping into a few of autobiographies/memoirs - The Sound of Laughter by Peter Kay (audiobook), The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass by Frederick Douglass, Trans Mission by Alex Bertie, and Fine: A Comic About Gender by Rhea Ewing.

Thanks for watching, please do let me know in the comments what you thought of these books if you've read them!
