One of the best wrestling books, ever!
I love reading wrestling books to gain insight into a business that so little is known backstage. Mick Foley has always given one of the more honest insights, also more down to earth. This one chronicles his journey to ECW's One Night Stand and all the bumps in the road to. Some of the stories he shares with us really touch me when he talks about burn victims and children's hospitals, to his ...

Terry Funk: More Than Just Hardcore

Worth Every Penny!!!
I picked up this book because of how Mick Foley has talked up Terry Funk in his previous two books (Have A Nice Day & Foley Is Good). I've become somewhat of a late Terry Funk fan thanks to Mick Foley. I've missed out on some of Terry's best days and best matches (notice to WWE - get moving on a Terry Funk dvd!) so I must admit to being weary heading into reading this book. I was very ...

Good for what it is.
I have to say that I really enjoy Mick Foley's children books. I have gotten both the Halloween and the Christmas books and have made reading these books an annual holiday tradition. These books are whimsical and above all try to teach a moral lesson. One thing that does need to be addressed is the need to continue to bring these books up to date as the WWE roster changes. Wrestling fans have ...

Amazing story, that any professional writer would be proud of.
Let me just say that this is a brilliant novel. Not a brilliant novel, considering the author is a wrestler, or a brilliant novel considering the author has only published a handful of books, but a brilliant novel by any standard. Foley writes in such a way that a man who does naked push-ups during sex becomes normal. He creates characters who are multi-dimensional, flawed, but with the ...

Laugh, cry, get blown away with this spellbindingly heartfelt autobiography, with no ghostwriters attached!
Amazing that in a few weeks, Mick Foley poured his life and soul into 760 pages of notebook paper that would make it, lightly cut and without any major edits, onto book, and earn it's New York Times #1 Bestseller's List. If only it weren't for that Oprah! (readers of the book will understand) Starting from childhood, he makes it quick, but sweet as he tells humorous stories about his friends, ...

Foley continues his ranting, raving, and charming storytelling
With the massive success of "Have a Nice Day: A Tale of Blood and Sweatsocks" it seemed unlikely that a wrestler/entertainer would put out another autobiography only a year after the first. Having told all in the last 800 pages or so, what new could he possibly tell us in another 500? With the pace pro wrestling moves, an assload, and not only that, but with his personal life as well. Much ...

The True Meaning of Halloween - Candy!
Mick Foley has once again written an instant children's classic. He uses his witty humor and rhymes to produce a wonderfully written halloween book for children of all ages. It is a must read for any fans of his writing and comes highly recommended.

you will have a nice day
What would you expect from the wrestler who once lost part of his ear in an in-ring accident? ...who took a 20 (or so) foot fall through a chain-link cage during a battle with the Undertaker? ...who became a hardcore legend by wrestling on thumbtacks, or in rings surrounded in barbed wire, or with folding chairs? The answer is surprisingly a delightful Christmas story. Foley's imagination is ...

Out of nowhere?
I had a friend who really liked Mick Foley, so I read "Have a Nice Day". I thought for what it was it was well written. It was filled with a lot of referential humor that it took a little Googleing to understand but it was a sweet well written journey into the world of wrestling. After that I kept up reading his books, (but not the children's books) and of course read Tietam Brown. I thought ...
