It's WWE, and it's after 1996, so, meh, it can go here.
Now I am reading Mick Foley's first book for about the 200th time, and I can honestly say that this one, and his sequel, are two of the best not just wrestling books, but books overall.
I am looking forward to his third so damn much.
Discuss 'em here!

The story where Owen Hart is yawning and looking at a fake watch whilst in the sharpshooter kills me every time.

It always bothered me that the date of the Over the Edge PPV where Owen died was wrong in Foley's first book. It was obviously not on purpose, but it still wasn't corrected by the time the paperback came out.

I still have not read Foley is good which makes me wonder why I haven't just bought it yet. But I have read Foley's first book so many times since Middle school. That is a great book. Also Tietam Brown was really good as well.

Also Tietum Brown was really good as well. Yes, it was. Tietam Brown was a great effort for a first-time novelist. I liked it a lot and read it in about a day.

haven't read "Foley is Good" yet but "Have a Nice Day" is one of the best books I've ever read, it deserves mad props for including the transcripts of his "Cane Dewey" and "Uncle Eric" promos

I read the paperback of Foley's first book so many times that when I lent in to a mate, he got to halfway through the book and the spine was so weak the book split in two

I love both books. I especially like when he talks about his kids. Noelle was so cute, I wonder what she looks like now....

my paperback of hae a nice day has been taped, and re-taped back together, its this book that gae me an absolute love for reaing, i read it at least once a year, and enjoy it more every time. He seems like such a genuinely nice guy. i loved the section about owen, it gae me insight into a guy that i nevver knew a whole lot about. and the part in Foley is good, with Noelle being afraid of the werewolf guy was hilarious.
