Liked this better than Tina Fey's and Amy Poehler's memoirs. Rainn has lived a fuller life and I loved listening to him tell his story.

3.5 stars I had no intention of picking this up, but it was available on OverDrive and I thought ‘why not? I love The Office, I love Dwight. Might as well learn more about Rainn Wilson.' I had no expectation and I was pleasantly surprised :)
