Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

As a former cast member myself, I looked forward to reading this book long before I actually got it in my hands. I loved my years at Disney, but knew about the seedy side of things as well and looked forward to what he had to say. Once I started reading this book though, I was highly disappointed. The author spends the first half of the book bemoaning Disney and what it stands for, acting like he was too cool and above it all. Then the second half disallusioned that Disney didn't give him the escape he'd been looking for. I don't even want to get started on how much of this was just over the top exageration. The "characters" in this book are too unbelievable to be real. They're just too outlandish and are not actual human beings. Yes, there is drama and scandal a plenty in DisneyWorld. I would never suggest that Disney World is the perfect work environment but nothing like the author "claims". I was so disappointed in this book, I struggled to finish it. I looked forward to a book that would spill some of the secrets, backstage stories and experiences that happens unbeknowst to the guests just 20 feet away. What I got was a book that was so crazy, exagerated and outlandish, that it should be under fiction.
