The only one I was interested in was "License to Pawn: Deals, Steals, and My Life at the Gold & Silver" by Rick Harrison. Bummer was I'd just read the hardback.
I'm a "Pawn Stars" fan, and found it interesting. Basically, they've all got hard backgrounds which they've overcome through the years. (Rick has said on the show he was a horrible kid. Made me feel a bit sorrier for "Old Man"!) Except for their unknown history, they're basically the people you see on the screen.
Some of the stories from the 'dark side' of the pawn business are interesting. There's a good reason they do trade from a small, bullet proof window at night.
I enjoyed it.
