Have a Nice Day: A Tale of Blood and Sweatsocks by Mankind, Mick Foley, Wwf

4.0

---

I did end up liking this but it took a little while to get into because I didn't recognise any of the people or companies until he hit the height of his WCW days. In the preface Mick Foley says he hopes this book would be accessible to non-wrestling fans as well but I don't think a casual or non viewer would be able to follow the book. He spends a lot of time describing his driving, or blow-by-blow accounts of the matches which is understandable from him handwriting the book but could have been edited down. I think it was a good insight into the wrestling world (and I had to stop reading at several points of the Japanese death matches!) but I think a lot could have been edited out to make it a stronger book.
