Heather B. (Heather-and-Raven) -
Helpful Score: 1
An excellent, actually heart-warming book from the mouth of one of the most recognized and loved porn legends. Everyone knows The Hedgehog, but this book was a great history of his climb to fame. His early years, how his thought process wrapped itself around this way of life, and his goals for himself. You find yourself completely rooting for him - esp in his drive to become more "mainstream" in "regular" (non-porn) movies, and your heart breaks for him each time his hopes fall through. The sex and porn talk are NOT done in a shocking, salicious way. It's more of a friend telling you how he feels, why he feels it, and how it's affected him. Couldn't put the book down and would happily read anything else by him.
* Big note: Anyone with young kids may want to take extra caution with this book. There are TONS of photo stills from Ron's movie (topless women and almost-full-frontal men). Actually, one of the best parts of the book are all the photos he included of himself with celebrities, but some of the "porn shots" may make parents want to keep this book - no pun intended - under covers.

He is just a guy...Nothing fancy about Ron...He tells it like it is and doesn't hold any punches which makes you love him all the more...I have seen him in *ahem* action a couple of times and it's just not for me but he loves what he does and he's good at it...He lives a life that most only dream of living...This book gives you a glimpse into his life from the beginning to now and really gives you an idea of what makes Ron Jeremy the hardest working man in show business...
