3⭐️ It was also only okay. It’s hard to tell because I did a lot of reading of it to put me to sleep if I’m honest.

I liked hearing about his background and finding himself and his career after HP the most! There were some cute stories about the cast and filming, but somewhere in the middle it just felt like he couldn’t figure out what was worth telling, so spent chapters describing the other actors.

His chapters on mental health were by far the best parts of this book.

I didn't think that I could love Tom Felton more. This book made me feel for him in ways not many memoirs can do. His candid nature of each chapter had me captivated from the moment I started it. This being my first audio book made it all that much more special, hearing each chapter go by in his voice was like I was actually sitting there with him. Highly recommend even if you aren't a Harry Potter fan this goes way beyond the movies and dives deep into is experiences with fame and being a childhood actor.

I love Harry Potter and it was so interesting to hear Tom’s point of view. Also he narrates the book himself which makes it super fun!

I highly recommend listening to this on audiobook! Tom narrates the book himself and was thoroughly entertaining. Although he does not talk extensively about being part of Harry Potter, he shares a lot about being a child actor and his mental health/addictions.
