A Reader's Place

Welcome to A Reader’s Place–a resource for readers of memoirs and narrative nonfiction.  In addition to blog posts (below), reviews, and interviews, you’ll find Reading Lists, Award Lists, and other interesting information about memoirs by clicking on the Memoirs tab above or the Links on the right. Please feel free to comment, make suggestions, or contact me about speaking.

My book, a readers’ guide to memoirs and autobiographies–Read On…Life Stories: Reading Lists for Every Taste–was just published by Libraries Unlimited/ABC-CLIO. It seems like everyone is writing memoirs these days and we’re all reading and talking about them. Read On…Life Stories will help you find memoirs you’ll enjoy reading, thinking about, and discussing with friends.
