Not that many people have interesting lives worth dedicating a biography for, but Branson is a rare exception. Most of his adventures are whimsical, impulsive, and stupid, but his choice for fun over practicality makes things work out in the most magical way.
I rate this highly not because it was well written (it was actually a bit long), but because I want to adopt aspects of his personality in my life.

Such an inspiration!
I had to laugh at someone's review of "its a bit predictable". Firstly it's an autobiography not fiction and secondly, his life and this book are anything other than predictable. He is an entrepreneur full of character and that is portrayed in this book. I loved it.

the story is inspiring, but the language could be tightened and the narrative be made more concise.
I would prefer to read an abridged version if there was one.
