Always Looking Up

Michael J Fox wrote an autobiography a few years ago which covered his career from the beginning through to when he started coming to grips with Parkinson's, so I was quite surprised that he had written a followup tome - Always Looking Up.

Always Looking Up isn't about Michael J Fox the actor. It's a lot more about Michael J Fox the activist and his work with Parkinson's. It's also about Michael J Fox's personal reality and how his life has been changed and affected by PD.

While this may sound terribly boring and depressing in some respects it's a wonderful read. While other people might be depressed by PD, Fox manages to see the positive side of his new life and is more than happy to share his deepest feelings.

If you're looking for a celebrity biography then you might be disappointed, but if you are interested in a fascinating and heart lifting story then Always Looking Up should be on your reading list.
