Publisher Description

Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino gives fans the inside scoop they’ve been begging for with his explosive tell-all.

In this whirlwind of action-packed, unbelievable stories, Mike paints a raw and uncensored picture of his rise to stardom, steep fall, and amazing renaissance, all told with unwavering honesty. Divulging everything from drug-fueled orgies to what really happened behind the scenes of reality television’s most loved and dysfunctional family, Mike’s book reveals all for the first time.

In his familiar, straightforward voice, he hilariously tells of intoxicated run-ins with celebrities like The Rock, Robert Downey Jr., Drake, Jay Leno, Leonardo DiCaprio, David Hasselhoff, Jason Statham, Lil Wayne, Kristin Cavallari, Whoopi Goldberg, and more. Alongside the comical moments, he describes more poignant events, such as the frantic searches for opiates to sate excruciating withdrawals, including one such time in Italy, which led to the infamous wall headbutt fight with Ronnie.

No punches are pulled in this unfiltered tale, relating Mike’s darkest thoughts after trying heroin, going to prison, and grieving his wife’s tragic miscarriages. However, like in all true redemption stories, Mike never gave up, and listeners are sure to be inspired by his determination to get clean and sober and become the man he is today. With pure candor and vulnerability, he delivers details on the mindset that got him through those dark times and onto the enlightened, sober path he walks today. Through personal anecdotes and invaluable life lessons, Mike teaches listeners how to overcome obstacles and embrace change. From conquering personal demons to finding redemption, he proves that it’s never too late to turn your life around and make the best of any situation. Get ready for a reality check like no other, and join Mike on a journey of self-discovery, resilience, and the pursuit of living your best life.

A true redemption story

I purchased the audiobook version of Reality Check, this book was well written and details many of the life experiences Mike Sorrentino went through. As a teenager I watched Mike on Jersey Shore, however I was unaware of the depth of his addictions. I’ll admit he hid them well. Hearing his story made me understand how addiction plays a leading role in a persons life. I am amazed by his victory and triumph over the battle of addiction. I am thankful for his belief in God, I believe God is using Mike’s testimony to help set people free from addiction. God can set anyone free. Much love to Mike and Lauren (as Lauren has played such a wonderful role in his life. I already love her!) Thank you for sharing your story!

Amazing story!

I’ve been following The Jersey shore cast since 09’ I loved hearing Mike’s story from start to finish. You get to hear a lot of details from behind the scenes and what he was going through each season. Loved every detail and would recommend giving this a listen/read totally worth it ! I wish there was more but 9 hours and 28 min is a lot ! 😁 my partner and I listened to this together and really enjoyed it
