The Answer Is...: Reflections on My Life

When Alex Trebek passed away recently, I saw he had written an autobiography type book—The Answer Is…: Reflections on My Life—and got it from the library. The book is full of little vignettes from Alex Trebek’s life—childhood, various adult jobs, time on jeopardy, cancer diagnosis, etc.

I really enjoyed this book. We watch Jeopardy with my grandma whenever we visit her in California, and Emmeline particularly loves it. I liked Alex Trebek as the host but didn’t really know much more about him and so found the book interesting, especially the parts about Jeopardy (less so the parts about his younger years). The book did have quite a bit of bad language, so that was the only downside.
