Book Review Tuesday: Trejo: My Life of Crime, Redemption, and Hollywood by Danny Trejo; with Donal Logue

I was very excited to find a copy of this book at Barnes & Noble while I was on vacation this past summer. When I heard about it, it automatically was on top of my to-read list for 2021. Here’s my quick review of Trejo: My Life of Crime, Redemption, and Hollywood:

Trejo: My Life of Crime, Redemption, and Hollywood is an absolute must-read. Even if you’re not a fan of Danny Trejo’s work as an actor, his life story is an inspirational journey that everyone can learn from. Trejo has literally been to the depths of hell and back. His struggles with addiction, his multiple stints in prison, and the issues he faced from both situations evolved into one of the greatest human success stories.

I’m a huge fan of Danny Trejo. He was terrifying in Con Air, was excellent in Machete, hilarious in commercials, and honest in interviews. He’s the real deal, a man who isn’t ashamed of his past and is willing to help others overcome their problems and find success in their own lives. 

I highly, highly recommend Trejo: My Life of Crime, Redemption, and Hollywood. It’s a quick read, but definitely a memorable one.
