    I particularly like autobiographies read by the author. A great sun-genre is comedian autobiographies since they’re already good storytellers. Three fine ones are: Martin Short’s “I must say”, Trevor Noah’s “Born a crime” and Guy Barnum’s “My Life as a Goddess”

    Unrelated but well worth hearing is “On the road” by Jack Kerouac, read by Sean Penn.
