Book 65: Being Henry: The Fonz and Beyond by Henry Winkler

 I just finished Being Henry and I give it ☆☆☆☆.

This memoir is pretty good. Certainly I remember The Fonz from Happy Days (its first few years were when I was in High School and then I had a hiatus during college, but I probably watched it a bit after maybe? I don't recall. Anyway, this is an interesting book how Winkler dealt with fame, how he got stereotypes and found it hard to get another job after Happy Days, how he got into directing, and how therapy helped him deal with his career issues as well as his family issues (his parents seemed like real pieces of work). He seems like a generally nice guy, if a little anxious, and he certainly loves his family and friends. I think I got this for $2 or so on Amazon and it was certainly worth that!
