    Ok, I am 46. I barely ready but want to start more.. My favorite book is Anthony Bourdain Kitchen Confidential, my Favorite move is Royal Tenenbaums, I love music, mostly Classic Punk and modern hardcore punk along with indie… I like Westerns, gritty drama & humor that makes you think… I do enjoy Hunter S. Thompson as well.

    What is a good easier read or short story book I should look into? Thank you

      Factotum, by Charles Bukowski

      Out of Africa, by Isak Dinesen

      The First Wife, by Paulina Chiziane

    2. Cork Dork by Bianca Bosker is Kitchen Confidential vibes. A journalist spends a year trying to be a sommelier and learning all it means.

      Band People by Franz Nicolay might be an interesting NF.

      Maybe Daisy Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid for a fictional Almost Famous meets Jersey Boys vibe. It’s great as an audio book too.

      A Visit from the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan. It’s a series of intertwined stories (kind of a novel, kind of not) focused on people who make music for a living.
