Sean Sean said: " By God, what a great book this fella Norm MacDonald has written. Not only is it full of old stories from his past, but the overarching narrative is brilliant. Parts reminded me of Flann O'Brien, other's reminded me of Bulgakov.
Would highly recommend

"Re-reading this book since Norm's passing.

He was so immensely talented. His humour leaps off the page and he's as good at writing words as he is at speaking them.

RIP Norm"

"The writing has a lovely flow to it and the details O'Neill shines a light on that were omitted from Helter Skelter are very interesting.

I do think, however, I'd be enjoying the book more if I was familiar with the official story surrounding the Manson Murders, but that's my own jam. Overall so far so good though!"
