The Dubya memoir because my mom is Fox News loving tard but I'd feel hypocritical if I didn't give it a fair shot. Honestly it's not bad.

Also Johnny Weir's (the flamboyant ixe skater) memoir "Welcome to my World." He had no co-author and very little editing was done. It shows. It begins like a book written by Paris Hilton. Flaky and all flash for teenage girls and fags but then it feels like Johnny got comfortable and confident with writing and it starts to get some depth. I'm enjoying it as well.
