Now, for the first time, he reveals the details of his struggle with these challenging disorders.

Hubby and I listened to this book on the way to and from vacation. It was a good car listen, although it made my hubby laugh so hard that was worried about his driving abilities being compromised. hubby loved the book and while I enjoyed it a lot some of the stories he told were a little offputting to me. Still I love biographical books because they give me an insight into the celebrities' lives and usually end up with me liking the celebrity much more than before. This book didn't disappoint in that aspect.… (más)

A frank, funny, no-holds-barred memoir, "Here's the Deal" reveals Mandel's ongoing struggle with OCD and ADHD--and tells how it has shaped his life and career. As heartfelt as it is hilarious, this is the story of one man's effort to draw comic inspiration out of his most vulnerable places

This book covers how he got started as a comedian and what things he did throughout his career. It does talk a lot about his OCD and ADHD. It’s a big problem for him but he didn’t stop him from jumping into new opportunities, which was admirable considering his difficulties. He’s always liked pranking people since childhood but it was often embarrassing or demeaning. Some parts are very funny. I mostly like Howie but not the pranking parts.… (más)

Here's the Deal: Don't Touch Me by Howie Mandel

★ ★ ★ ★

I've been a fan of Howie Mandel for quite sometime. His humor has always made me laugh and I've enjoyed him in everything I've seen him in thus far. So I was excited to read his memoir and was not disappointed. Besides delving into his long comedic career (spanning well over 30 years now) he delves into his personal life and his life-long struggle with OCD, ADHD, along with other mental illnesses. He leaves no rock unturned in this quick-to-read memoir. He shows the good and the bad. The tricks gone to far, the embarrassing stories, the success and the failures. He leaves impression that you may not like him as much once you read some of his stories, but that's him, take it or leave it. I will say that the book was sort of all over the place with thoughts. In many cases that would drive me crazy while reading a book, but given who it is, I think it fitted his personality perfectly. Overall, a very well done memoir. If you like Howie Mandel, this is a must read to find out about the man, inside and out.… (más)
