also did this one on audible which was a GOOD call because 1) trevor’s voice is chef’s kiss and 2) i love hearing people tell their own stories, put the emphasis where they want it, etc (see: becoming by michelle obama). trevor noah is a stellar storyteller and the stories in this book struck the perfect punch of wit, comedy, truth and pain. big fan.

Funny, insightful, and heartbreaking. Trevor Noah weaves a story at odds with itself. As life usually is.

A great memoir! Love Trevor from the daily show and thoroughly enjoyed this book. Learned a lot about apartheid too.
