Mail for Mikey: An Odd Sort of Recovery Memoir

I've had the pleasure of speaking with Mr. Bean on the Dennis Miller radio show. He says that this book won't be sold in Christian stores because it's a little raunchy. I read the part where he drops the F-bomb and I must say that it totally works in the context of the joke. No other word would have had the same impact. The story is very sweet. It's told with a great voice. And so what if it's not sold in Christian stores? He'd be preaching to the choir anyways.

I am an alcoholic with forty some years of sobriety. I am retired with over 20 years background in addiction counseling and treatment administration. This is simply one of the best of several dozen of this type of book that I have read. Anyone interested in this subject would be well rewarded by purchaing this book. It is a ten out of ten.

Based on someone's recommendation, I read this book. It was very interesting and uplifting. I think there are many people today who are struggling to find more meaning in their lives and this story provides some strong suggestion for where to look.

If you know someone who's on the fence about faith but mostly think he's just too hip to believe, this is the book! Orson Bean is refreshingly candid, honest, and persuasive! Read at your own risk!

I heard Orson being interviewed on the Dennis Miller radio show and after hearing about his book, I just had to read it. I was blessed that I did. Orson's writing style is wonderfully fresh. I laughed out loud and cried moments later. I felt like I had a lot in common with the way Orson came about his belief's in God and Jesus.
