I listened to the audiobook, if that counts, but Total Recall, Arnold Schwarzeneggar's autobiography. When I started it I was like "holy shit, this is 25 hours? Dude must be milking it".
Turns out, he actually glosses over a lot, he's done THAT much in his life, and his drive and ideologies are inspiring. He was raised dirt poor without running water, was in the Austrian military, became a world class bodybuilder, a real estate mogul, a movie star, and a governor.
Just a riveting life's story.
I love that in his autobiography, Total Recall, Arnold Schwarzenegger fails to totally recall all of his accomplishments, since he's had too many.
Unironically I'd love a "Lord of the Rings Extended Edition" version of his book. There are a lot of smaller details about some of the things he worked on that I would've loved to hear expanded on, but yeah, there's just TOO much
lol audiobooks are just books.
