Having 20 years Sobriety myself I liked the honesty,genuine sharing and of course laughs from this book. One thing people who are in recovery learn is how to laugh again and Craig Ferguson certainly has that gift. True down to earth story of him coming to America to visit an Uncle who worked here one summer when he was a bot and then vowing to come back as an adult. But there were many years of trouble and twists-some self inflected as he will share with honesty before he was able to. Great book for anyone who has been in recovery or not because it shows you a man who made mistakes and learned from then and then did better-more than he would have ever imagined. Came from a working class family, did honest hard work etc. and experienced all classes of life before coming to be a TV host. Still honest to his routes and does not forget his blessings. Not a fake person like many TV Movie stars become. True rag to riches story and inspiration plus makes us all proud to be an American, something too many of us take for granted if we were lucky enough to be BORN here. Highly recommend-yes there is strong language-one remaining bad habit of the many he gave up but shows he is human and honest. Hilarious yet thought provoking and hard to put down. Has lots of actual family pictures also. Highly recommend to anyone unless they are unable to get past the rough language he grew up with and still uses occasionally!Read full review
Excellent book. I highly recommend it. It is a great read , very informative, very funny, very serious, and unbelieveable in places. This man is a genius. He is from Scotland but came to America and took the citizenship test and became an American. He is a great actor/ writer/ comedian/ late night talk show host. I love to watch him at night and I devoured his book. Please pick it up and read it. You will not be sorry. I also bought the book on CD . Craig narrates the book and it is so relaxing to listen to. I recommend it highly. Lisa
Even if you aren't a Craig Ferguson like me, you should find a lot in this book that most can relate to on some level. The comedic skill of Mr. Ferguson shines through, yet I feel it is a clear look through a window into what makes this man tick. I give this book a high enough recommendation as the rating stops at excellent, if there was a rating for Totally awesome I would select that.
I watch Craig Ferguson's show all the time, and love his honesty and PERFECT comedic timing, HAD to get his book. I was VERY impressed. He opens himself up and lets you see ALL! It's an excellent read and I highly recommend it. He shows his sense of humor and intelligence in a way that is very refreshing. READ IT! You won't be sorry.
The book is an incredible read. Quick, interesting, funny, & a great peek in to the real life of Craig Ferguson. I would highly recommend it for anyone experiencing an addiction problem as it shows how Craig pulled his life together & became a success. I have a lot of respect for Craig Ferguson after reading his story.
