In My Mailbox (9)

In My Mailbox was started by Kristi over at The Story Siren and all you have to do is post about what books you received that week by mail, library, or store.

This week I bought Jim Beaver's Life's That Way: A Memoir. If you don't know who Jim Beaver is, he currently plays Bobby Singer on my favorite TV show Supernatural.

I've been wanting to read this book since I first heard of it but have avoided it due to the subject matter. This book is actually a compilation of e-mails that Jim wrote after finding out his daughter was autistic and that his wife, Cecily, had stage-four lung cancer.

I know this book is going to make me cry like a baby but I cannot seem to stop thinking about this book.

What is your favorite memoir?

  2. This does sound like a heart-wrenching book, but it sounds like something I'd enjoy. I'm going to look for this. Thanks!
