I picked up the audiobook for this and it was awesome that Jericho actually narrated it. A quick somewhat insightful read that made me realize he has 3 other books out there and they are pretty sequential. Now, I'm reading them in reverse. As a lover of both wrestling and music, it hits a nice little niche for me. Another plus is that this book is rather short so I can catch up on my audible credits.
He's no Mick Foley, but Chris Jericho can definitely write (and wrestle, I suppose). A wide-ranging biography — from a geographic and emotional perspective — you get a front-row seat to the rise, rise, rise, plateau (WCW) and rise of Jericho up until the time he his the WWF(E).
He's lead an interesting life, and though a bit over-fond of poop jokes and the like, knows how to tell his story in a compelling way. It's not exactly one of those "so good you'll like it regardless of your background" bios, but if you're into (or were into) wrestling at all, this is definitely worth a read.… (mere)

Good second biography. Not as good as the first, and a bit disappointed by how quickly he flashes over key segments (primarily early 2001-middle of 2001). He also seems to skip or even flat-out get parts wrong (he claims at one part HHH-Jericho at Fully Loaded happened in 2001 but it was 2000; and he also mentioned it while talking about 2001). He also skips around a bit with his matches/dates. He'll discuss 2001 wrestling, and then discuss 2000 wrestling. He'll talk about his WMXIX match with Michaels and then talk about his WMXX match against Christian, but gloss over it, only to barely go over it again later when it's actually chronologically time to discuss WMXX.… (mere)
