A review by maddijean
Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing by Matthew Perry

4.0

This was so honest and vulnerable. He discusses his long struggle with addiction and mental health, his rise to fame, as well as the struggles that came with that, and his struggle keeping relationships. I was sometimes put off by his ego and some things that he recalls thinking he deserved due to his fame. But I appreciated his honesty and vulnerability so much, as most people writing their memoir would not admit to ever being anything but a nice person with no ego. It was very strange reading this after his death and I was not aware of how much and how long he struggled with his addiction. Overall, I enjoyed this listen and would recommend to anyone who enjoys a memoir and Friends!
