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

adventurous challenging dark emotional funny hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced

5.0

This book hurt my heart in many ways, but reading it in Perry’s voice helps. It’s so unfortunate to read this after his passing, because the entire time I read the book, it felt like he was never truly going to get better. Friends is my absolute favorite show, so reading about his experiences on the show and envisioning him in every season and every scene he talks about just breaks my heart. It feels weird to “rate” someone’s life, but it is really a good read, he’s very raw and honest about his addiction and emotions he dealt with.
