I'm not a fan of autobiographies, but as I have been a fan of Andre Agassi's since I was a kid, I decided to give it a shot. I was pleasantly surprised--Mr. Agassi is a very talented writer, which has to be another natural talent of his since, as he says, he didn't do well in school and didn't even get through high school. He is a natural story teller and he was very open and honest about his life, the good and the bad. There were many times that I laughed out loud as I was reading and times when I felt like crying with him. A very clear case of public perception and the media turning things into something they are not and of society being only too willing to jump on the wagon. It was interesting to hear his story and it was told in a way that kept you interested. If he were to write more books, I'd definitely read them, no matter what genre they were.
