A Celebrity Memoir: I think You'd like We're Gunna Need More Wine. It was awesome

A book with a female protagonist over the age of 60: I think the Supremes at Earl's All you can Eat might work. I think the ladies in that book were 60+

A book of True Crime: Devil's Knot (if you haven't already read it)

Read Devil's Knot. I ended up with Devil in the White City but the focus was not on what I thought it would be.
