Very quirky biographical /memoirish style of book with absolutely no contribution from the subject at hand - but I was fascinated none-the-less as Goldblum is such a tenacious, enigmatic, figure, seemingly beloved by all.

Jeff Goldblum is a nice guy. Jeff Goldblum is a nice guy. Jeff Goldblum is a nice guy. There, I've saved you the time from reading this book. Although.... the author did get me to watch a Jeff Goldblum movie of which I wasn't aware: 2008's "Adam Resurrected." The author did what he could with what he had to work with, which in essence is a self-proclaimed unauthorized biography of a really nice guy.

A fascinating read about Jeff Goldblum. Besides a long acting resume, he also is a Jazz musician. I recently listed to his love album and the energy in his banter is also carried in this book.

This book was received as an ARC from PENGUIN GROUP Dutton - Plume in exchange for an honest review. Opinions and thoughts expressed in this review are completely my own.

I loved every page of this biography and the humor Jeff has during the interviews with Travis and I don't think there was any point to the book where I was not laughing hysterically. I remember Jeff vividly with his role in the Jurassic Park films and the apple and apartments.com commercials and knew he played Jazz music but knowing what inspired him to go through all of these outlets was so inspiring that I was amazed the entire book. This would be a great book to use for a project, even though it is not an autobiography due to Travis's credibility with the Washington Post and his new found relationship he discovered with Jeff himself.

We will consider adding this title to our Biography collection at our library. That is why we give this book 5 stars.

This book is an absolute treat and a whirlwind of a read! I too am one of the people who've constantly questioned (but fully accepted) the being that is Jeff Goldblum and why he has become so popular and meme-able, and Andrews doesn't shy away from the absurdity of it all. While an official biography would surely be just as enjoyable, albeit probably for different reasons, this unofficial glance into who Jeff Goldblum is and the fact that he's ingrained into the world's consciousness is laugh-out-loud hilarious. It was the absolute remedy I needed among heavier books and a very heavy year.

Delve into the mind of Jeff Goldblum. It's a trip that won't leave scars but may tickle your funny bone. Sometimes you just need to get away from today's realities and lighten up. Take that trip with "Because He's Jeff Goldblum"

I love Jeff Goldblum and I'm so happy he's getting more press lately. This book uniquely describes his career and his role in pop culture.
