If You Would Have Told Me

I Picked Up This Book Because: Curiosity

Media Type: Audiobook
Source: H C Public Library
Dates Read: 12/18/23 - 12/20/23
Stars: 4
Narrator(s): John Stamos

The Story:

This is John telling his story from A - Z. He speaks of his time on several shows, Broadway and his family life. There were some rough times but you can hear in his voice now how he is absolutely in love with his wife, child and life. You can also tell how much he loves his mother, father and other immediate family members. I enjoyed his stories about celebrities I had no idea he had close relationships with, this is the one of the best parts about memoirs. The story is not told linearly so it can be confusing as to where you are at times but that wasn’t a huge problem.

The Random Thoughts: (

John Stamos’s memoir, If You Would Have Told Me drags and does not present any interesting tidbits. His world revolves around alcohol, drugs, and women. Then a small miracle arrives in the form of his current wife, Caitlin McHugh, and the birth of their son. Of course John, honors his mother throughout the story as the guiding light of his life. This book wasted my time. (

I typically enjoy celebrity memoirs and this was no exception. John Stamos has so much heart and really so much of this book is a tribute to his parents, his family and his upbringing. I loved learning how he got involved with the Beach Boys and how he almost tried to get out of being America's beloved 'Uncle Jesse'. The stories about him and his cast mates from Full House becoming their own kind of family were so sweet.

I also recently got to meet him at a book event and he was just as warm and charming in real life. If you're an 80s/90s kid especially, you'll want to pick this one up! (
