Summary
Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino gives fans the inside scoop they’ve been begging for with his explosive tell-all.
In this whirlwind of action-packed, unbelievable stories, Mike paints a raw and uncensored picture of his rise to stardom, steep fall, and amazing renaissance, all told with unwavering honesty. Divulging everything from drug-fueled orgies to what really happened behind the scenes of reality television’s most loved and dysfunctional family, Mike’s book reveals all for the first time.
In his familiar, straightforward voice, he hilariously tells of intoxicated run-ins with celebrities like The Rock, Robert Downey Jr., Drake, Jay Leno, Leonardo DiCaprio, David Hasselhoff, Jason Statham, Lil Wayne, Kristin Cavallari, Whoopi Goldberg, and more. Alongside the comical moments, he describes more poignant events, such as the frantic searches for opiates to sate excruciating withdrawals, including one such time in Italy, which led to the infamous wall headbutt fight with Ronnie.
No punches are pulled in this unfiltered tale, relating Mike’s darkest thoughts after trying heroin, going to prison, and grieving his wife’s tragic miscarriages. However, like in all true redemption stories, Mike never gave up, and listeners are sure to be inspired by his determination to get clean and sober and become the man he is today. With pure candor and vulnerability, he delivers details on the mindset that got him through those dark times and onto the enlightened, sober path he walks today. Through personal anecdotes and invaluable life lessons, Mike teaches listeners how to overcome obstacles and embrace change. From conquering personal demons to finding redemption, he proves that it’s never too late to turn your life around and make the best of any situation. Get ready for a reality check like no other, and join Mike on a journey of self-discovery, resilience, and the pursuit of living your best life.

Great story
His story is great to hear. But a narrator he is not. It was terrible and not natural sounding at all!

Honest, Raw & encouraging
If you are having a bad or difficult time read/listen to this!
This is a raw and insightful insight to a man who has over came it all. Even when it feels hopeless there is always a way out if you want it bad enough. There is always tomorrow to start or try again.
I LOVED this and it gave me hope for myself that I too can pull myself out of bad habits and find the good in myself and my world around me! 1000 percent recommend this to anyone !!
