challenging slow-paced
Wonderfully told by the man himself, with that classic Matthew Perry humour, while letting us in with such honesty and vulnerability. He made no excuses for his past, while also opening his heart to the daily battle with addiction and war against himself he was facing. It felt like a deep conversation with a good friend who I felt like I could have sat and conversed with for hours...which in some way I guess I did, however 1-sided it was. Witty until the end who deserves to be ranked among the best of the funniest of entertainers we've been lucky to have. I just hope he has now found the joy he so long searched for, yet gave so freely to millions. Rest In Peace Matthew Perry.

This book was so powerful and honest. I found his experience and battle with addiction so profound and so brave how he opened up and made himself vulnerable. Thank you for writing this.

DID NOT FINISH: 15%
I started listening to the book the same night of Matthew Perry's death. I thought it would be timely and interesting, but after listening to the prologue and him narrating how he should be dead and why... it felt a little too timely. I might have to wait a few years to come back around to this one again.
