About this listen

Sporting a proverbial perfect Rotten Tomatoes score of 100%, Certified Fresh, The Rock embodies everything we want from our Hollywood superstars...and everything we admire in those who so boldly pursue the American dream. But how did it all happen? How did a loathed professional wrestler become one of the most famous people in the world? Was it just good timing? Years of trial and error? Countless hours in the gym? A winning smile? Or his total mastery of Instagram Stories?

For Your Consideration: Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson looks at the distinct phases of the legend’s career, examining the ways in which he has become both an onscreen heartthrob and an off-screen hero. Composed of five critical essays and fun extras, including an all-Rock version of the Oscars, a quiz identifying the best Rock character to take to the prom, and a definitive ranking of The Rock's catchphrases, this book is sure to satisfy pop-culture enthusiasts and The Rock's hardcore fans alike.

I originally downloaded this on a whim after tweeting about the book. Everyone wanted to know if I was actually going to read it and so I thought I’d give it a whirl. It immediately hooked me in.

The reading performance is engaging, warm, and charismatic. And damn right, too! This is written with such affection and personality, it really couldn’t have been read any other way.

I came away from this book with an unexpected feeling of warmth and inspiration. It’s uplifting as well as interesting.

Genuinely surprised me. I’m so glad I read it.

Unexpectedly inspirational
