“Don’t let Simu Liu fool you. On the outside you may see boyish good looks, talent and a body made of tightly coiled muscle. But on the inside? It’s quite good looking in there too. Strong heart. Beautiful ligaments and a soul made of spun sugar. Also, he wrote this hilarious and heartfelt story about growing up, finding yourself, and seizing your moment.”
— Ryan Reynolds
“A sincere, funny and fascinating love letter to family, and a guidebook to pursuing your dreams.”
— Olivia Munn
“Oh great, another underdog story of overachievement. Just what we needed.” — Ronny Chieng
“A frank and often funny look at [Liu’s] path to becoming a superhero…he tells his family’s story with empathy and honesty, and the resulting book is a sincere tribute to immigrant families everywhere.” — EW.com
“A tender, nuanced narrative that is refreshing in its frankness. His focus on the pressure, rather than the promise, of the American dream actively subverts the model-minority myth…A celebrity memoir that compassionately interrogates the dark side of the American dream.” — Kirkus Reviews
