This is such an inspirational book and really makes you look at like differently. Also gain a new profound respect and admiration for Matthew. One of my favorite books yet!
2025 Reread Review: This was my second time reading this one, this time for my book club, and I still enjoyed it but I actually think I liked it a little less. I’ve read so much more since I picked this one up and have some new perspectives on story telling and writing styles that I think I realized areas I didn’t like as much this time around. Nothing changes in terms of his experiences and how captivating or interesting they can be but I did feel like it was clunky at times. I listened to the audio again which is great because Matthew does his own narration but i also have a hard copy of this now so I was able to look through the physical and it really is a fun and inspiring story. I love the way he provides advice and learnings to us as a reader while adding his personal flare. Still one of the better memoirs I’ve picked up!
2023 Review: This memoir came highly recommend by my husband and since I already liked Matthew McConaughey so I felt pretty confident I would like hearing his story. I was right. His experiences and advice were captivating and hearing it all in his smooth, baritone, handsome voice just made it so much better.
Interesting character, crazy life. He's a very spiritual soul and appreciates the good fortune he's had.
I loved this touching, funny set of stories about the author's life. Some stories were funnier than others, and some had me feeling strong emotions. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who needed something light and quick to read. It was well-written and kept me engaged for the whole book.
