At the turn from our bedroom hallway, there is an old full-length mirror in a wooden frame. I can't help but catch a glimpse of myself. Turning fully toward the glass, I consider what I see. This reflected version of myself, wet, shaking, rumpled, pinched, and slightly stooped, would be alarming were it not for the self-satisfied expression pasted across my face. I would ask “What are you smiling about?" answer: "It just gets better from here."

This is the follow-up to Fox‘s previous memoir, Lucky Man, which I read just a few weeks ago. While this one was good and I love hearing him read his own books, I have to admit that I liked the first one better. This one was a little drier in parts and slow moving early on, but it picked up in the second half.

Kloves2read He is my favorite actor! I loved his first book, and tried to read this one, but I couldn't get through it. 5y

Utterly unrelatable, the glass of Fox's second memoir is still over half full. Great family, great job, great foundation, horrible incurable disease. He mentions wallowing a few times, may have made for more interesting read. Wish PD was gone already, thanks for your work on that MJF.

LLColbeck If you'd like my copy of "Always Looking Up" just let me know in the comments. 8y
