...the book is a collage of memories, photographs, poems, notes to self, and bumper stickers that make up the past 50 years of his life.

There are journal entries, poems written in junior high, and bumper sticker slogans throughout, but this is primarily a memoir full of engaging stories.

McConaughey’s self-effacing slacker-cool attitude, which lets him casually drop a few thousand on the hapless Buffalo Bills in the Super Bowl, has made him an ideal masculine movie hero for our anxious moment. The world is on fire, but he has got you; he’s our mindful-breathing Brando.

This book is essential reading for fans of his. Even if one has followed his career and interviews over the years, this book will have plenty of new material.

Fans of McConaughey will enjoy his memories.
