Who likes to read Biographies?

I like reading biographies. I like finding out what makes people tick. I especially like memoirs.They are a slice of the writer's life.

I do enjoy biographies. I love learning about people's lives and how they've overcome the obstacles in their lives.

I have read the occasional biography. I do enjoy them.

I'd love to read them because they are often inspiring.

I enjoy reading biographies, I like learning about real people's lives.

I just finish reading a book on Abraham Lincoln. Quite interesting.

It really depends on the subject of the biography. I think that a lot of younger people who have so far done very little in life end up with published biographies or autobiographies long before they have anything interesting to say - in such cases I think the publishers just do it to cash in on their current popularity.

@Meramar Yes,I used to like reading Biographies.Though I have not read one recently.I know Why the Caged bird sings(Maya Angelou).Journals of Silvia Plath,Biography of Virginia Woolf etc.comes to mind.

I'm reading two historical novel type of books. They are written from the subject's perceived point of view. I love this kind of reading, and straight biographies or autobiographies as well.

I'm not a public speaker so I don't give lectures and therefore I never include biographies in lectures. I have, however, read a lot of biographies and autobiographies. I've enjoyed them ever since I was a kid. I like to read about how people navigate their life path and how they deal with the vicissitudes of life. A big, fat autobiography or biography book can be very enjoyable. It's nice to walk in someone's shoes for a little bit.

Sometimes I like to read biographies if I am interested in the person.

In biographies we get answer of every question so love to read that.
