There aren't many times where I have the urge to start a book over from the beginning merely hours after first finishing it. But that's how I felt about Greenlights. I could listen to Matthew McConaughey for hours!

This book was mesmerizing. I was captivated by his stories, and I was awed by his personal insight. I personally love a memoir that is a mix of personal stories and reflections. I love when an author shares their perspective on events after the fact. I've read a lot of celebrity memoirs, and there isn't a lot that do that. There are even fewer that have done it as well as McConaughey, in my opinion. That's why I think his book is so distinguished. It's top tier exceptional.

I highly recommend this book, and definitely the audio version. This book is also great for the non-readers, or infrequent readers in your life. My partner is an infrequent reader. This is the first book that we have ever both read. It's a bonus that we both loved it too!

This book is also highly quotable. I would love to get my hands on the physical copy, just to write down some of my favourite passages. How McConaughey explains what greenlights are in terms of a person's life is just the start of the wisdom that he shares.

Just writing this review has given me the desperation to re-read it. So readers, put this one on your list!
