READ SOMETHING SPECIAL: Greenlights by Matthew McConaughey
Not just a pretty face, Matthew McConaughey can really write. To mark his 50th birthday, the Texan actor went into the desert, sat down with the diaries he’d been keeping for decades and turned them into a riotous, life-affirming memoir. Through a series of unflinching reflections on everything good, bad, beautiful and ugly in his life (including his own naked arrest), he builds a powerful manifesto for living with heart and soul.
