Crazy
Is My Superpower: How I Triumphed by Breaking Bones, Breaking Hearts, and
Breaking the Rules – A J Mendez Brooks (Crown Archetype)
Full disclosure up front- No I am not a wrestling fan,
no I don’t watch WWE, No I have never read any of the current or former
wrestler biographies and quite frankly I wouldn’t know A J Mendez Brooks or her
alter ego A J Lee if she bit me on the backside.
That said, I can tell you with all honesty that Mendez
Brooks truly lives up to the old saw about “good things coming in small
packages.” This lady is a true powerhouse and I found Crazy Is My Superpower: How I Triumphed by Breaking Bones, Breaking Hearts,
and Breaking the Rules – A J Mendez Brooks to a fun, entertaining read. She
offers up a heartfelt story and what I think is some well grounded guidance that
I will share with my teenage daughter in the hopes that she will learn from the
drive and hard work that Mendez Brooks spells out.
Wrestle nerds may be disappointed by the smaller than
expected volume of WWE and wrestling related material included here. Her
chapter ending entries dubbed, “Diary of an Unfit Mind” are priceless in their
humor, candor and raw edge.
While I may not have been a follower of her wrestling
career; after reading Crazy Is My Superpower
I will admit that I will watch for what is next from Mendez Brooks.
