This review is from: Vin Diesel : Fueled for Success (Mass Market Paperback)

I loved reading this book and could not put it down. I liked how it gave me more information on the struggle that Vin went through to become a supestar. This book gave me more to think about when it comes to avheiving a goal like Vin has and it doesn't hurt that he is absolutely beautiful.

I am a die-hard Diesel fan, so this was a must for me. Might be a little 'plain' for most.
