For writer bio/memoir I read Heather Clark's Red Comet: The Short Life and Blazing Art of Sylvia Plath. It was...upsetting. I spent the last couple chapters swearing at many many people in her life (and a few in mine--the ones who had dismissed her suicide as "sticking her head in the oven" as if it were as simple as that and also spoiler her head was never in the actual oven. Anyway).
It's also 45 hours in audiobook so it took me quite a while to finish it.
