If you're a Bachelor Nation fan, this book is like getting VIP backstage access to Colton's rollercoaster journey. I devoured it in two nights—partly because of the juicy behind-the-scenes tea (hello, fence-jumping context!), but mostly because his vulnerability about identity and relationships hit me right in the feels.

The NFL-to-Bachelor pipeline sounds wild, but Colton makes it relatable. His chapters on struggling with expectations vs. authenticity? Chef's kiss. Though some Bachelor purists might want more rose ceremony gossip, I appreciated how he balanced show secrets with deeper self-reflection (that Cassie love story arc had me swooning).

Warning: The writing isn't Pulitzer material—you can tell there's ghostwriter help—but who cares? It's like listening to your most dramatic yet insightful friend recap his life over cocktails. Extra points for the Aly Raisman relationship insights that made me go 'Ohhh THAT explains that awkward ATFR moment.'

Skip if you hate reality TV meta-commentary, but for fans? This is the literary equivalent of those messy-but-great Bachelor finale episodes we secretly love.
