The Time of My Life
by Patrick Swayze
The best autobiography I've ever read (2/21/2021)
I can say that I read a lot of books, but I don't think I ever said that a book is a life changing. Well, this one is.
It's definitely book that everyone should read. First of all, I am very grateful for this book as a way to keep memory of Patrick alive forever. Even though, he tragically passed, reading this book you'll feel very close to him, just like he's talking to you in person.
His life was definitely something to cherish and celebrate forever. Patrick left marks on everyone's heart. He was one of the kind. Such an inspiring figure that will never be forgotten. To me, Patrick Swayze will always be the most loving Hollywood star ever, and not just Hollywood star, but a real down to earth, loving, caring, brave, strong, gentle, beautiful and superb human being. This world is worse place without him. He really did something for each of us, and changed many people's lives one way or another. He spent a worthy time talking about his dad and their relationship, which felt very personal to me, because, just as Patrick's dad was to Patrick, my dad is my look up to figure. And as a matter of a fact, Patrick Swayze was the actor of my dad's childhood, that he always looked up to growing up. My mum a loved him very much too, and few days ago, when I mention that I'm reading a Patrick Swayze book, it all of a sudden brought tears to her eyes, and she said:,, You discovered him? He was superb, and is missed" So he always meant a lot to my family, and now to me too.
I can say for sure, that this book made me a better person at least. On the other hand, I have to say that the book is written perfectly, and I enjoyed the style and content more than I ever did.
When I started reading it, I had no idea of what I was getting myself into, and I just wanted to take my chance and try to read it. And now, after just one day I've read more than a half and I look forward to use every free moment to read this masterpiece.
It's definitely must-read.
