Tina Knowles
In Matriarch: A Memoir by Tina Knowles, we get the opportunity to learn about this Matriarch who is the mother of Beyoncé. We learn about how this woman as a young girl from Galveston, Texas became a determined woman who was self-possessed and self-aware to raise her daughter to be one of the greatest artists of all time.
We see who she saw the world growing up and how important it was to her to shape it in a way that she could lift limitations that were placed on her as well as realizing the power of dreaming bigger. This philosophy took her beyond the shores of Texas that she grew up in and elevated her to a place that truly allowed her to take her power into her own hands.

David Grann
The Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck, Mutiny and Murder is an International #1 Bestseller by David Grann - author of Killers of the Flower Moon. He takes us to 1742 to a shipwreck that illustrates the survival, savagery, and court martial that reveals a shocking truth! We learn that the actions that took place on The Wager, a ship whose captain and crew were not only on trial - but even the questions that circled around the idea of an empire.
We learn about the British Empire's involvement, what took place on the ship that washed up in Brazil, 30 emaciated men who had quite an interesting story to tell, and what valuables the ship sent to collect via this secret mission in the midst of all this activity.
As everything is found out what was once seen as a heroic endeavor, becomes one that is calculated and greed in the worst human behavior when we are left in extreme situations.
