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

A well written memoir that mixes humor and reflection in perfect balance. Each chapter stands alone as an essay, so this results in repeated moments or memories to orient the reader. That gave a lot of "deja vu", though it still had a good flow. I really liked how it went well beyond "that guy from Fall Out Boy" to outline Joe's life, hopes, and challenges.
