Críticas:

"Read by the author, who does killer imitations of every star he's met, this memoir is pure delight." --People

"Lowe's narration is personal, warm and skilled...His brief vocal characterizations of well-known figures such as Bill Clinton, Cary Grant, and entertainment impresario Bernie Brillstein are remarkable. This audiobook is much like a good film: absorbing as well as entertaining." --AudioFile Magazine, winner of AudioFile Earphones Award

"Lowe not only has great timing, but proves a skilled mimic of well-known figures ranging from the spacy-sounding Coppola to fast-talking superagent Bernie Brillstein. Which makes the book not only fascinating, but a joy to listen to." --The Providence Journal

"It's one thing to read Rob Lowe's memoir, intriguing as it is. However, it is quite another to hear his life recounted in his own voice. Hearing his words in his engaging, expressive voice seems to actually bring the listener into his world, much as if one were sitting across the table from him...Many of us may remember him primarily for his iconic role on 'The West Wing, ' but after listening to history we're sure there's a great deal more to come." --Beauty by the Books

"This book truly surprised me. I knew I'd enjoy it, but I wasn't counting on how much." --5 Minutes for Books

"A lovely autobiography, equal parts dish and pathos." --Vanity Fair

"[Lowe] writes viscerally and insightfully...He looks back at the aberrant highs of his heart-throb days, the changing nature of stardom in Hollywood, the trade-off he has made between high life and home life, and the step-by-step effort behind his show business survival. He looked like the callowest kid in the "Outsiders" crew. Now he looks like the sturdiest of them all" --The New York Times

"I really enjoyed it...Thoroughly entertaining: the Brat Pack years, the Wayne's World years, the Alcoholic Obscurity, the Glamorous Romances (Princess Stephanie of Monaco!), the Inevitable Rehab, and the Triumphant Comeback on The West Wing." --Time Magazine

"[Lowe's] charming, honest, even affectionate memoir is the story of strong guts behind a strikingly handsome face...A book to recommend widely." --Booklist

"A fresh pop-culture history of Hollywood in the '70s and '80s from the point of view of the man who lived it...[Lowe] is as funny as he is thoughtful. This is the best type of celeb memoir, because its author is as interested in the world as the world is interested in him." --People Magazine

"The world would be a better place if more stars' memoirs were like Lowe's--chatty, dishy, and with celebrity walk-ons (Tom Cruise! Sarah Jessica Parker! Princess Stephanie of Monaco! Martin Sheen!) galore. As entertaining as a Brat Pack film festival." --Parade

Reseña del editor:
The 1980s Brat Pack founder presents an intimate account of his life in show business and politics, tracing his counter-culture youth in Malibu, his work on such productions as The Outsiders and The West Wing and his pursuits of family and sobriety. Read by the author. Simultaneous.
