I'm making a list of books from various genres that have woman protagonists who are either child-free or childless (this especially).

Do you have any suggestions @bookstodon?

Not-women protagonists are also ok, as long as there are no babies, no pregnancies, no protagonists as parents.

It was the worst of first lines, it was recently the most quoted of first lines. No matter how hard you try, the Goliath of Publicity is rarely overcome by the David of Quality.

I haven't read many /. autobiographies.
Only 10 that I can recall offhand and most years and years back. Maybe there's a few more I have read but not many.
Those I can think of are -
1. Tom Baker
2. David Lynch
3. Angie Bowie
4. Mark Lanegan
5. Bela Lugosi
6. Carl Gustav Jung
7. River Phoenix
8. Che Guevara
9. Jim Morrison
10. The wife of the Marquis de Sade

Should read more (and more diverse ones) when/if I get through the TBR pile.

Indexing biographies is hard work! The need to balance index length with the necessary detail the bio's subject deserves always the challenge. (The cross-referencing alone is its own adventure!)

I only recently got my hands on the quite rare biography of Alfred Nobel by Kenne Fant.

Despite his successes and philanthropy, his life was an unhappy and unfulfilled one. In his own words, "I am a misanthrope and yet utterly benevolent, have more than one screw loose yet am a super-idealist who digests philosophy more efficiently than food".

What books are you reading in 2023?
