Good but not Great

I enjoyed listening to this book; however, I had heard many of the stories before in interviews and promos for the book. It was good to hear Jimmy retell the stories but it was not as great as the previous books.

His truth and honesty

 Loved everything about the book, although I thought it was quite sad and heartbreaking at times, but thoroughly enjoyed it
