Astonishingly Relatable
I never go into a celebrity memoir expecting much, but I was shocked by not only how much I really enjoyed this book but also by how relateable it was to me. There were parts that could have literally been taken from my life. As such, I devoured this book and have even been considering rereading it which is something I do not normally do.

This novel allowed for very interesting views into the life of Bruce Lee. There is much exploration into the mysterious aspects of Bruce Lee's life in this memoir.

I enjoyed how he strips the mythology of Bruce Lee from the man and gives readers a view into the "real" man underneath.

I would definitely recommend this to people who are interested in Bruce Lee.

This was listened to on audiobook on the drive from GA to NJ. It was a well told memoir and I am pretty sure the narrator was the actual author. It is a story about overcoming odds being stacked against you. This book made me think about things that need to be addressed if we ever expect things to get better overall in our country.

Book Favorite

"When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi. Kalanithi’s brave memoir chronicles in exquisite prose his brave battle with terminal illness, but rather than verge into depressing territory, it is a triumphant and inspiring read. His words make one rethink our perception of time—to not only imagine what we might achieve in the future, but to cherish the beauty that surrounds us in the present"

"Anne’s frank, witty memoir of her incredible life within the nexus of British aristocracy—born the daughter of an earl, she was lady-in-waiting to Princess Margaret and married to one of the most colorful eccentrics of the 20th century, Colin Tennant, the man who bought a barren rock in the Caribbean and turned it into the fabled jet-set paradise of Mustique."
