Josh Hanagarne grew up to be 6’7” tall and became a librarian. Along the way, he tried many things to get control of his Tourette’s syndrome ticks. He is Mormon and loved to read from an early age. He was about 6 years old when the ticks first appeared, but he wasn’t diagnosed until much later. His father guessed early on that that was what was going on. One thing that Josh tried when he was an adult to help with the ticks was weight training.

I listened to the audio and quite enjoyed this memoir/autobiography. There was plenty of humour in the book and the audio was engaging. I really enjoyed all the book references, most of which I’ve read! Especially loved his “crush” (when he was a child) on Fern from Charlotte’s Web and the mentions of that particular book, as I just reread the book myself! The bits and pieces of Mormonism were interesting, as well. Most (all?) of what I’ve read about that is about the Fundamentalist Mormons (the polygamous Mormons), so it was interesting to read what is similar between the religions.

Sounds interesting......added to the TBR.

I've had this on my tbr for a while. Glad to see a positive review from someone whose opinion I trust!

I hope you both like it!
