I haven't read it. I hate to say anything negative, as I've met the author and think he's a good guy, but I have heard a lot of bad things about the book. Nonetheless, I'm curious to read it myself.

I'm curious to hear what it was you heard and how true it turned out to be once you've read the book, Bill.
