Listening to Go Ask Alice while I work on this artsy puzzle. I found a woman reading this book on YouTube. I was a little worried at first since the narrator seemed to be untrained, which is totally fine, but it held my attention the whole way through. While her tone was a little monotone, she was consistent and read solidly throughout the novel. This book is wild, and there is so much controversy behind it!

pickEqually heartwarming and heartbreaking, the Elected Member explores the events and complex family relationships which led to the favourite child, Norman‘s, drug addiction and hospitalisation. Funny and packed with surprising revelations. 7/10
pickListen to the audio! Such an emotional roller coaster ride is this woman‘s life. I felt a lot of truth and vulnerability throughout the book and felt connected. I love an audiobook read by the author, especially a memoir. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
so-soTold be a comedian, this book tells Kasher‘s addiction at 13, his life as a middle school dropout and “right turn”. I‘d like about 50 less pages of his debauchery (we got it) and 50 more pages of his evolution to recovery. Entertaining, and funny at times.
