This is a great read that combines personal anecdotes with self-empowerment. Reminiscent of books like Elizabeth Gilbert's Big Magic (the author references Gilbert as a friend/mentor). Focuses a lot on parenting and on her relationship with wife Abby Wambach. Will probably make a lot more sense if you've read her previous book(s) first.

My daughter loves this book. We always have to read it over and over again.

This memoir reflects a lot of the joie de vivre and personality you'll see of Van Ness in his tv and social media appearances but also deals with a lot of tough topics with a lot of honesty and flair, including sexual abuse, STIs, addiction, and so on--which may be surprising to some readers and/or difficult for them to hear. Audiobook especially good.

This book makes for a good read for a summer trip. You can breeze through it very quickly. I particularly recommend the audio book for hearing the author's narrative view. Well structured to draw reader into the author's anxiety/plight brought on by this friendship.

Dietrich pays homage to the Florida area where he grew up. Each story is interesting and attention getting. Enjoyed every word.

we half liked it. Mama loved it

Susan Wiggs does it again! A great story to get caught up in.

If you enjoy southern writing and stories about real life Sean Dietrich books are for you. Ever read Rick Bragg?? You'll love Seans!

This was the first book I've read by this author after having seen some of the tv/film adaptations of her work. The books really bring the characters to life, and it is intriguing the way that they are told in first person from one person's point of view. Hard to say how historically accurate these are, but they do seem accurate in a broad sense. Actually encourages interest in the historical subject matter. Makes for a great summer read.
