challenging dark emotional funny hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad tense

Listening to the audiobook and actually hearing Matthew Perry talk about his life and struggles was truly heartbreaking. Listening to him talk about his hopes for the future was especially hard considering he passed away just about a year after this memoir was published. This was an emotional one but definitely worth a listen. An easy 5⭐️ read for me.

Is it the best book ever written? No, definitely not. There is a lot of repeating sections. But I don’t think memoirs need to be great works of literature! It’s an insight into the mind of a real person. It’s messy, unorganized and long winded.

This book is absolutely heart breaking.. I watched the documentary about Avicii after he had passed away and this book gives me a similar feeling. Of hopelessness. Wishing there was something I could have done as a complete stranger, to keep this person here for a little while longer.

No matter what your opinion is about Matthew Perry or Frends, I highly recommend you pick up this book. The audiobook is narrated by the author, and that ALWAYS gives autobiographies a vibe that cannot be reached by reading it yourself.

It’s a story about a bent (not broken) human being coming to terms with the reality of their life on earth. It’s sad, it’s inspiring, it’s warm, it’s funny. Especially the way Matthew talks about all the different people in his life: his family, his frends, his costars, his ex-girlfriends. It’s so heart warming to listen to. He was a beautiful, deep soul, that was dealt an unfortunate hand in life.
