A difficult book to evaluate. The earlier one started with a chapter entering rehab for sex addicts, then never really mentioned the issue again. This book seems to be all about sex addiction ... or maybe it's about success and sex addiction. Then Katy Perry entered the scene, and I already knew how that had come out. Meanwhile our boy Russell makes passing references to yoga, vegetarianism, transcendental meditation, and other issues that seem totally at odds with the boorish character he presents. Obviously a lot goes unsaid, and one realizes that he's only really comfortable when he presents his persona, not his real person. Entertaining in places, but in others there's too many details, and it just becomes uncomfortable.
