Pure Billy Crystal in this memoir mixed with comedy bits on aging. I'm not in the 65 year-old age group, so I didn't identify as much with the “people our age” angle of some of the chapters. These were interspersed with decade-based chapters chronicling his rise to fame. Everything was conversational and I could imagine Billy Crystal saying it. That made some sections verbose, but it was usually worth the laughs. The approach of the book flowed so well, it didn't have the “slow opening” of some memoirs. It was an easy, delightful read.
