It’s a loooooong read, and took me 2 months to finish. There is a lot of insight and backstory to his early years as 44 but also, a huge information dump of things that weren’t interesting at all (to me). However, I like his candor and the fact that he name-drops everyone and anyone who has ever helped him, met him, or walked past him on the street – this man knew everyone’s FULL NAME and occupation. That really shows his character and blew me away.

If you have time. Read it.
