Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing by Matthew Perry. I read this before the actor passed away, but with his passing it makes the struggles of his life even more heartbreaking.

Pageboy by Elliot Page is the story of the actor's life and struggles growing up and in Hollywood. This one was particularly interesting to me because the actor is originally from my area. So some of the stories had familiar locations.

Apparently the audio narration by the actor is fantastic! This one did come out a year before the infamous slap. So I suppose it would be interesting to compare the now and then.
