I finished Matts book so you don't have to
I just finished reading Matt's book, and it was as shallow as I expected.
The book is a memoir of his life in chronological order, from the moment his mom found out she was having triplets to his current life in LA.
The first part of the book focuses a lot on how his childhood was affected by his first panic attack, especially his 6th and 7th grade years. Even with the help of his family, he couldn't manage to be comfortable going to school.
Matt gives more context about their family in general, and we can see more of how loving and caring their parents are, especially how their mom was always there for him, even if it affected her job.
He highlights therapy and medication, and how they helped (or didn't help so much). However, don't think it's a self-help book in any way. I think he tried to make his audience relate to his story rather than give any help.
As the book continues, he talks about sports, high school, COVID years, and the beginning of their Youtube career.
It ends by talking about his life in LA and how fame affected him.
The book is very shallow, I read it all in less than 5 hours. You can see how, even with the help of the editors, Matt is not a reader and struggles to organize his thoughts and discern what to put or leave out on the page, which is reflected by the size of the chapters, for example. Also, you can tell how he didn't have a lot to say as a 23 year old, it feels like he is still stuck in his school drama.
And if you're expecting some drama about Laura, forget it. He does nothing but say positive things about her and Maddie. He also doesn't focus on any friendship or relationship drama with anyone, and barely mentions his LA group.
He gives some insights here and there about fights he had with Nick and Chris, but in a very childish way.
Basically, if you were keeping up with their channel, there's not much news in the book that's worth reading.
