Not My Father’s Son by Alan Cumming
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
This was another audiobook that I had hoped to read during #nonfictionnovember but had to place a hold on and didn’t receive it until December! It took me almost the entire month to read it due to the fact that the holiday’s made life a little crazy, but I’m glad I followed through until the end. 🎧
While I’m a bit embarrassed to admit this, I didn’t know who Alan Cumming was until recently when we binge-watched ‘The Good Wife’. I fell in love with his character on the show and while researching about him and learning that he was gay, I decided I need to know more about him and immediately checked to see what books I could find! 🌈
This was an emotional re-telling of his life as a child and the trials and tribulations he experienced as an adult due to choices his family had made. I can’t say too much more as I don’t want to spoil the whole point to the memoir. Once again, as so many other memoirs I’ve read, I love getting to see someone famous in a new light - their flaws and all. 💜
If your’e someone who enjoys memoirs, I highly recommend this one to you!
