Born a Crime by Trevor Noah
I'm a sucker for audiobooks read by the author and this is one of them. Trevor Noah is a skilled comedian and his stories of his growing up in South Africa are genuinely hilarious. It's like listening to a book-length stand up show.

Beyoncé
She started out in a group called Destiny's Child, which was super popular back in the late '90s and early 2000s. They had big some hits, like "Say My Name" and "Survivor." But Beyoncé didn't stop there. She went solo and totally nailed it. Beyoncé's music is a mix of R&B, pop, hip hop, and more, and she's known for putting on incredible live shows. Some of her big songs you might know are "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)," "Crazy in Love," and "Halo." On top of her music, she acts in movies, runs her own business, and does a lot of charity work. She's also married to Jay-Z, another big name in music, and they're kind of like the king and queen of the music industry.
Adele
She's got a voice that can make you feel all sorts of things. She sings mostly about love, heartbreak, and all the ups and downs that come with it. Adele's songs are super powerful and have a way of hitting you right in the feels. She has a bunch of hits that you've probably heard, like "Someone Like You" and "Rolling in the Deep." Not only does she have an incredible voice, but her music has a lot of emotion and depth to it. Plus, she seems like a genuinely cool person with a great sense of humor.

Banana
Behold, the atheists' nightmare. Now if you study a well-made banana, you'll find, on the far side, there are 3 ridges. On the close side, two ridges. If you get your hand ready to grip a banana, you'll find on the far side there are three grooves, on the close side, two grooves. The banana and the hand are perfectly made, one for the other. You'll find the maker of the banana, Almighty God, has made it with a non-slip surface. It has outward indicators of inward contents - green, too early - yellow, just right - black, too late. Now if you go to the top of the banana, you'll find, as with the soda can makers have placed a tab at the top, so God has placed a tab at the top. When you pull the tab, the contents don't squirt in your face. You'll find a wrapper which is biodegradable, has perforations. Notice how gracefully it sits over the human hand. Notice it has a point at the top for ease of entry. It's just the right shape for the human mouth. It's chewy, easy to digest and its even curved toward the face to make the whole process so much easier.
The Disaster Artist
The best book about the best director in the world. It was such a great book it was adapted into a movie. Bet the other books on this list can't say that!
Pioneer Academics
-They will not pay you for your work if they can get away with it -They are an administrative nightmare behind the scenes. I would be expected to be on call 24/7 and to be responsive at all times, because sometimes meetings would be scheduled less than an hour before it was supposed to happen -they are very patronizing, discriminatory, and treat you like you are a disposable employee and unintelligent and incapable of doing your job -no career opportunities here. You start in one place and will be stuck there

The most rectangular of them all. But seriously, it's a great state! Lots and lots of nature, plenty of mountains and bisons. It is also home to Yellowstone National Park, the first national park in the U.S.
The Black Swan by Nassim Nicholas Taleb
