Over the Top is exactly what you expect and not at all what you expect. It's a celebrity memoir, but JVN takes it to the next level. He's so open and raw. I appreciated that so much. I feel weird rating it because of the subject and because it's his life story. It was great, flowed well, and had a good balance of laughter and heartache. Some reviewers didn't like a few of the tangents, but they seemed natural to me. But then again, I'm all for a good tangent. I also got to walk away with one of my favorite quotes ever.

“I might look like sixteenth-century Jesus, but sometimes I struggle with being the landlord of Petty Lane.”
