A review by linneahbt
Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing by Matthew Perry

challenging dark sad fast-paced

3.5

Technically, not a masterpiece. Doesn't demonstrate the growth that many memoirs do - but that's also what makes it so very human. Matthew Perry is not that far out of the very dark woods where he spent most of his life. He has made so many mistakes and treated people poorly and despite all that has people by his side rooting for him every day - which he recognizes as the blessing it is. A very tough read, though. Unflinchingly raw and honest.
