....Armstrong. A new book due out Oct. 7. Has anyone read the first chapter that's available HERE (http://lancearmstrong.com/lance/online2.nsf/html/chapter1) ? Just wondering what you thought about it? I haven't read any of his previous work, but I do have a book on request from the library.
I read it and really enjoyed it. It is a fairly easy read but I have enjoyed how the emphasis on the book (at least that first chap.) is about not just living, but living with style! :p
Hope you liked it! If you liked "It's Not About The Bike" I'm sure you'll like this. So far seems to have the same feel about it.
:D

Just read the first chapter
Good enjoyable read.
Whoa!
The first book was an entertaining read- I enjoyed reading it and learning more about the man behind the bike. However, I've read hundreds, if not thousands of books, so I wouldn't call it great writing. Good yes, but great? It was ok...
This current book looks a little less entertaining, but still an enjoyable read. I wouldn't mind borrowing it from someone someday (hint hint for those who get the book). I agree with KennethToronto- a good enjoyable read.
I'm still trying to piece together the point of book 2.... it wasn't really clear from reading it, which is probably why I don't feel very connected to it right now either.
It will probably thrill Lance fans and T de F fans to no end, though. Viva la Lance!
