I tried this challenge about 2 years ago but didn't read any memoirs. I already have a few related books on my Kindle so I plan on joining the challenge again. I especially like memoirs from famous chefs like Julia Child and Jacques Pepin as well as memoirs from Christian missionaries. Jamie Ghirone from the Whatever I Think blog is the challenge host.
