Putting the Rabbit in the Hat by Brian Cox Book Review

Magic Tricks and CEOs

From the moment I saw Logan Roy's face on the cover of this book, I was hooked. Last semester I religiously watched the HBO series Succession starring Brian Cox as media tycoon Logan Roy. The show follows a company power transfer between a father and his children. The Logan Roy character proves to be quite despicable but still an incredible businessman. I was curious to see if Brian Cox was anything like the Logan Roy character and how much they differed. I find it interesting to see how actors and actresses compare to the roles they play. 

So far, I have really enjoyed the book. It's always really exciting to read about someone overcoming hardship to become successful. I like the way the book is written because the author writes in a style that really brings the reader into the story. Brian Cox does a great job of establishing the dynamic of his family and the relationships he has had. 

Lastly, I connected with Brian Cox's comments on tragedy. Brian Cox lost his father at a young age and stated that this experience help to put things into perspective. I understand this as I also lost a loved one growing up. It really does clear things up and completely change your understanding. I'm looking forward to the rest of the book and seeing where the Brian Cox story will go.
