Not great

If you want over long, over researched, boring interviews with everyone Tom has ever met, dispersed with magazine interview quotes. Tom very obviously didnt have anything to do with the writing of this book. Narrator was very dull and the use of pounds instead of dollars was irritating. A struggle.
