54 Memoirs That Readers Are Raving About

"Let's face it: Being cooped up inside during the pandemic has left a lot of us searching for a sense of connection with one another. Memoirs are a beautiful way to experience the world through the eyes of people with fantastically different points of view.
Below are 54 memoirs that are resonating with Goodreads readers in a huge way so far this year, running the gamut from an unjustly imprisoned man's quest for peace to a woman's discovery of her unlikely lineage to a superstar actress piecing her life back together.
We curated this list based on reader anticipation and buzz, which we measure by how many times a book has been added to Want to Read shelves. We also measured each book's average rating (nothing below a 3.5 average made the cut)."
