She is just a few years younger than me, so I was drawn into her descriptions of growing up in the ’50s and ’60s suburban America. But don’t let her bright smile and cheerful demeanour fool you, Katie has been through plenty of difficulties and tragedy. (That is how the two genres are distinguished memoirs are more of a personal recollection.) Katie Couric’s new memoir Going There intrigued me, since I often listen to her podcasts and follow her daily email newsletter.Ĭouric brings to this book her signature breezy style, often self-depreciating, very candid and definitely straightforward. I prefer a memoir to an autobiography (or a biography) because a memoir is often more conversational and personal. A chance to glimpse into the world of someone who has faced challenges or overcome obstacles.
