pickA very pleasant #audiobook. I was telling my mom that it felt like listening to my grandpa telling stories, though my grandpa didn‘t grow up backstage at burlesque shows! Not at all gossipy or salacious. He‘s honest about difficult things, especially his mom‘s mental illness and his struggle with their relationship. I found the first half (growing up, falling in love, trying to make it as an actor) more engaging than the second. Still, a pleasure.
mandarchy I loved this book, but I grew up sitting on my dad's lap watching MASH. I loved the part where he worked every job he could get, especially the clown at the car dealership. It made me realize how hard he worked even though he had a leg-in. 2y
