This book really deserves perhaps 3.5 stars. It gets off to a 4 star start, and has some 5 star moments, but lackluster editing leaves a lot of dead weight. I think this could have made an even better 200 page book (it's almost 500). Perhaps the publisher thought the imposing title needed a thick book under it...

Sean Wilsey's life was crazy...if you believe what he writes. I do, I guess. His step-mother just came out with what looks like a come-back book. Anyway, Sean's story shows that the "poor rich kid" syndrome really happens. Moral of the story: Just because you're rich doesn't mean that you have a great life. How disappointing.

My experience of this book was sort of the opposite of the one I had with Babylon by Bus. I had almost no expectations of it, except that Snazzby gave it 5 stars. About a quarter of the way in I was so bored, and could not figure out why Sean Wilsey even wrote a memoir. Then it kind of got awesome. His horror story of an education was crazy to read, and his crazy family was a freaking horror story.

Dreadful. Horrible.
About 2% was worth reading. The trouble is you have to read 100 pages to find 3 sentences that are enjoyable. And then do it again, and again, because this book is endless.
I only finished it because I needed closure to erase it completely from my memory.
