Born a Crime by Trevor Noah

I learned a lot from this book and was totally engrossed in it. I didn't really know that much about Trevor Noah and I don't watch the show, but it gave me so much insight into apartheid and living in South Africa during that period of time, and beyond.
The book is funny, of course, but really disturbing at the same time. One incredible thing about his life, is his mother and her influence on him. At the start,  you think she's kind of a bitch....too stern and strict.
But in the end, the last chapter is devoted to her and it's so touching. This was well worth reading.
