This is almost exactly what I wanted out of a book about The Room. This is a hilarious and actually fairly emotional account of not only the making of the movie, but Sestero's life leading up to it as well as Tommy Wiseau's backstory. The fact that Sestero has put so many details of Tommy's life (whether they're true or not) in this book is remarkable, and the conversations that he recounts all really do sound like Tommy (at least what I know of him from the movie). I'm not sure there's anything here if you didn't think The Room was anything special, but if you did, it's a real treat. I have a strong urge to go back and watch the movie again now, and have a lot more respect for everyone involved with this production. The book really humanizes the whole story, and while I would've appreciated more input from or backstory on some of the other lead actors, the portraits of Sestero himself and Wiseau are worthwhile. I also would have loved an epilogue that dealt with the immediate and long-term aftermath of the movie's release, because that really wasn't discussed at all in this book, but as a making-of of the movie, this works very well.
