Thank you to Net Galley and Simon & Schuster for the ARC in exchange for my honest review. I followed Tony Hsieh early in his career and loved his book Delivering Happiness. With his success with Zappos and the redevelopment of downtown Las Vegas, it seemed he was doing amazing things. I lost track of his career and then heard that he had died in a strange and tragic accident. So, this book really interested me. The author's put together this book through research and many interviews with people that knew Tony Hsieh. It was very informative - if you read Delivering Happiness, there's alot of overlap during this period. There were many things that Hsieh kept hidden, looking to please everyone, face blindness and struggles with addiction. It sounds like he had troubles just being himself with people. It's a terribly sad story and, for some reason, the telling felt very gossipy and unclear if others' perceptions really tell the true story of Tony Hsieh's life and struggles.

Truly a sad story. I remember when he "came on the scene" and was popular, driven, and wanted to make things common sense. Not sure what happened to him. But his initial feelings were spot on. RIP TH.
