I couldn't stop at just one highly recommended memoir, I had to read two. Hillbilly Elegy by J.D. Vance tells the story of both him and his family, detailing the culture of the Appalachian region and the highs and lows that come with it. I spend a lot of time reflecting on the political points Vance makes, comparing this memoir with The Other Wes Moore, and highlighting random connections to my classes in college.
