The Big Lie by Julie Mayhew
A Higher Loyalty by James Comey
- After following the headlines I wanted to better understand Comey's position and actions. This book is a great way to hear from his point of view.
- This book covers Comey's career working with both Republican and Democrat presidents.
- Comes does a great job narrating the audiobook version of this title.

Mrs. by Caitlin Macy
- This novel is about the role of women in regard to socio-economic class.
- This novel is somewhat like Big Little Lies in how women are brought together, and their lives intertwine.
Just the Funny Parts by Nell Scovell
- This is a fun quick read. I enjoyed Scovell's narration of the audiobook.
- The book covers Scovell's long career in television.
- Reading this novel made me think differently about the television I passively consume.
