Fun Book submitted by kelmu on July 8, 2018, 8:03am Can be repetitive, but it's a fun read, especially if you like stories about one person sticking it to the man
Fun submitted by jibkidder on June 24, 2022, 7:30am Mitnick has lived an interesting life and there's plenty to enjoy in his telling of it. There's nothing exceptional in the writing he and his co-author throw together but the stories alone are compelling enough.
