Matthew Perry has revealed a bizarre apparent hatred of Keanu Reeves in his new tell-all memoir. I will say the interludes definitely brought me out of the story but other than that, this was a good audiobook, though slightly repetitious at times.‘Friends’ star Maggie Wheeler reacts to Matthew Perry’s ‘startling’ memoir I love when authors narrate their own memoirs as they bring their own authentic voice to their story.
I loved that Matthew Perry himself narrated this. Do I still love Chandler? Yes, but I now have a bit of a distorted view of him. I don’t tend to read a lot of celebrity memoirs and this is why. Perhaps this was his way of reaching out to others that might be needing that extra push to get help. I’m glad that Matthew felt he could share his story with us. But after reading this, I am amazed that he was able to act as well as he was given what he was doing…and that no one really knew just how bad it really was. I vaguely remember hearing he had run into some trouble when the show was still airing and I remember his weight fluctuating from season to season, but I never really gave it much thought.
Matthew Perry shares his addiction and he shares it all – the good, the bad, and the ugly. This is a dark book and in many ways, I give Matthew Perry a lot of credit for writing this. Chandler is one of my favorite characters and so I was excited to read this book…but this is definitely not a book just about Friends, nor is it what I would call a happy read. It’s my comfort show and always makes me laugh. Unflinchingly honest, moving, and hilarious: this is the book fans have been waiting for.įriends is my favorite TV show. Candid, self-aware, and told with his trademark humor, Perry vividly details his lifelong battle with the disease and what fueled it despite seemingly having it all.įriends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing is an unforgettable memoir that shares the most intimate details of the love Perry lost, his darkest days, and his greatest friends. In an extraordinary story that only he could tell, Matthew Perry takes readers onto the soundstage of the most successful sitcom of all time while opening up about his private struggles with addiction. Publisher: Flatiron Books / Macmillan Audio I purcha sed this book and audiobook for my own personal collection.
