I couldn't put it down. Very engaging, very sad.

Great book. There were parts that actually made me laugh out loud, parts that were just plain interesting and others that were absolutely heartbreaking. Also included are two sets of photographs. I definitely recommend this one.

(P.S. If you're interested in John Belushi, be sure to check out BELUSHI by Judy Belushi Pisano and Tanner Colby. Both The Chris Farley Show and Belushi are set up similarly, meaning, mostly made up of quotes about Chris and John from interviews with the people who knew them.)
