The best part was the chapters about his childhood (including family history), pre-university years, and his years hustling as an actor. I think that since I know some people who are actors in Canada, I could relate. But I found that beyond that some of the content in the narrative was lacking. Enjoyable read but it would have been even more enjoyable if we got the stories of his Shang chi filming experience, more about his time on Kim's convenience (for example, his fave episode or a behind the scene anecdote) or just a little more meat to the book.
