Reading this in June 2024 after Download Fest really brings a whole new layer of appreciation of how far Fall Out Boy has come, but more importantly Joe’s  part inside and outside of that as well

Full of self-depricating humour, Joe Trohman recounts key moments of his life and how they have influenced his life to make him the person he is today. Humourous and reflective, this is one for the fans who want to get to know the self proclaimed "man behind the man behind the man" of Fall Out Boy.

I found it a bit repetitive in parts, or at least a bit back-and-forth-y, and though Trohman's writing style is chatty and self-deprecating, it does lead him to go off on tangents at times. And by times I mean entire paragraphs of "what relevance does this have to what you're trying to say?". That said, I did really enjoy reading this (aside from the occasional vulgarity and rape jokes).

I loved the insight into Joe's life and way of thinking despite the heartbreaking stories he has to tell about his childhood and his place in Fall Out Boy. I thought the book was great and read it very quickly. My only complaints are that there is occasionally information repeated chapter to chapter as if this is a series of blog posts where someone is only starting to read in chapter 5 and 2 unnecessary rape jokes.

Pretty funny and very insightful. Wasn’t a big fan on the lack of chronological order and some of the jokes don’t quite land, but either way it is an entertaining autobiography that violently stuffs you into the metaphorical shoes of Joe Trohman.
