I think Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut was a life-changer for me. It showed me at a young age that fiction can be both funny and sad without suffering in quality. #ipraf21 #lifechanger

The Adventures of the Stainless Steel Rat by Harry Harrison. Heard this series was a good example of competence porn, figured I'd check it out. https://t.co/dC4bI1ocye

I think my favorite audiobook is for the memoir Born A Crime, by Trevor Noah. It's narrated by the author. It doesn't shy away from the realities of race in South Africa, but it's hilarious all the way through. #ipraf21 #loveaudiobooks
