Absolutely wonderful. Randy Pausch has so many incredible things to say in this book, and he, from the sound of it, was such an incredible man. I finished this book on the verge of tears, and also with a greater feeling of possibility, that I really can be everything I ever wanted to be. Randy Pausch may have lived only forty-seven years, but I would be willing to wager he achieved more of his childhood dreams and did more in those forty-seven years than many accomplish in eighty or ninety. Very inspirational. 
I would highly recommend this book to anyone.

This is a good quick listen if you're in the right mood and headspace for end of life consideration from someone who sounds like an extroverted neurodivergent boomer who actually went to therapy and had some useful reflections. F cancer.
