This book was recommended by my wonderful wife, and it turned out to be a pretty good biography with a side of philosophy and two solid chapters of The Office. The latter was the least interesting to me, as I am not a fan of any incarnation of the show. It is quite curious how similar our upbringing was, with a significant divergence - I continued to be a geek, he was bitten by the showbiz bug and became a celebrity. Rainn's philosophy is quite interesting, and I had no prior knowledge of SoulPancake. The writing, while humorous, jumped around at times, and the later descriptions of acting just weren't my bundle of sticks. Highly recommended to fans of The Office.
