Dancing Barefoot contains a series of personal stories from Wil Wheaton, helping to fill in the gaps in his transition from teen idol star of Stand By Me and Star Trek TNG to Wil Wheaton, Internet personality and outstanding writer. Having already read Just A Geek, I can see why these stories didn’t make the cut for Just A Geek, they don’t quite fit the flow, but they certainly stand on their own to further reveal Wil’s personality to the world at large. One of the things I most loved about Just A Geek is Wil’s remarkable ability to put himself out there with emotionally charged intimate writing revealing the inner workings of his psyche. Wil has a distinctive voice that quickly turns the pages leaving me almost desperate to know what happens next. Dancing Barefoot is a quick read, with each of the 5 stories standing on their own as a small glimpse at the man behind Wil’s curtain.
