I've never read an autobiography/memoir, so I'm looking for recommendations. What's the autobiography you couldn't put down, that you think more people should read, and why?

I had a hard time getting hooked at first. It's a slow burn for sure, and the multiple POVs made it hard to connect with a single character. But the second half of the book was very addictive.

Do you read books after watching their adaptation and vice versa? I feel it's quite common for fans of a book to watch the adaptation, but for me personally after realizing a series/movie is also a book I run to it. It's come to a point where I'm genuinely surprised when a good movie doesn't stem from a book
For example recently I watched down with love, a 2000s rom com set in the 60s, and I found it so refreshing and funny I was sure it had a book. Turns out, it doesn't! Or well, it does, but it was published after the movie came out, and though it's on my tbr, I still don't know if it's an actual book or the script of the movie
Have you come across a similar situation?
I also know of ppl who refuse to read a book after watching the movie or vice versa. My mom's like that, it doesn't matter if the book/movie's better, she absolutely will not read/watch it cause she thinks it'll ruin her experience of the story. I see it usually as an expansion, but I don't have high hopes for movie adaptations. Reading a book after watching the movie always adds detail to the story, but usually ends up ruining the magic of the adaptation

It's been a while since I've gone into a book fully blind, I have no idea where this is going or what to expect, but it's entertaining so far haha.
