The book is very funny and a great casual read. I loved the footnotes and writing which are informative and helps to show his personality and insight of his thoughts. We get to read more about his personal life and the heartbreaking challenges that he has faced throughout his life.

An absolute rocker! 5 stars I ugly laughed, almost cried, rolled my eyes and had a great time. This book was definitely free therapy and would 100% recommend to anyone who isn't squeamish or sensitive. Kay has a great autobiographical style, and as well as drawing me in with the humour, I feel like he has educated, counselled , and given me a voice.
