July 30, 2005: I'm almost at a loss for words about this book. It truly is unflinchingly honest, and I think the amount of times I've laughed out loud and the times I've basically been reduced to tears because of it are about equal. It's an outstanding book, and I'd recommend it to anyone at the drop of a hat. If Wil Wheaton has any difficulty landing acting roles, he should feel safe knowing he could easily make a living as an author. Five stars.

August 21, 2004: This book kept my interest so well that I read it in one sitting, something I've only done once before, with Stephen King's Misery. The book was funny, inspiring, sad and wonderful, all at the same time.
