Review of 'Becoming Steve Jobs' on 'Goodreads'

If you are a big fan of Steve Jobs and treating him as a rock star, then this book is for you, as it's full of gossips you would like.

I'm not, so I don't like this book very much. I really appreciate the writing of the book and the story of Steve Jobs is good, and some parts are very interesting. However, there are something very important about Steve liking in this book.

Steve Jobs had a wonderful life, full of drama. The most interesting things about him, I think, should be how he faces those dramas and deal with them, how those brilliant ideas came out, how he achieves such a brilliant life. This book is really good at presenting what happened to Steve Jobs, just like a boring history book, without any good analysis and explanation.

Another thing I don’t like the book is the author seems keeping talk in this way: I was the best friend of Steve Jobs, and I know a lot of things you don’t know. Steve and me had an very intimated relationship and I know tons of gossips of him and let me tell you. Please, I don’t care about those details of Steve Jobs.
