What does (anyone who has gotten this book) think of it?

I loved the road stories in it.... great stuff. Could've used a little less ultra-WWF-defending, but hey. I did read it inside of a weekend, so it was at least interesting enough to keep reading it.

I'm looking to get this one pretty soon. Have A Nice Day was one of the best autobiography's I have ever read. I'm not even that big a fan of wrestling.

I thought it was real good, he is a great story teller I think. Also I think you see more of him in this book then the other as far as how he is really. I also liked that he addressed the situation with The Rock after watching the extras on Beyond the Mat I was very curious about what happened later. I to read this in 2 days I couldn't put it down there were no slow parts were you thought ok I can stop here. Also the epilogue was very good, adn again you don't have to be a wrestling fan to like this, but I am a major Foley mark so that doesn't mean much coming from me. I am hopefully getting this autographed in a few weeks to match my cactus shirt, and the Rock's book that I have.

Got it yesterday and have already read half of it. Very good book and it is at least as good as the first.
