Let me begin by saying I rarely pick up memoirs and of those I have started very few I have ever finished. A lot of them end up being somewhat anti-climatic and sometimes they can be too narcissistic for my taste. Often in the back of my mind I wonder if there are things left out or opinions given that end up being more of a hindrance to knowing the truth. So the fact that I finished this memoir and am writing a review of this book speaks volume of how much I enjoyed this work.
