sherryl's review
3.0
Neither a biography nor a book about her writing craft. I felt the author had inserted himself too much in this and I finished the book still not knowing much about Lisa Jewell or her writing process. Too many chunks of her books quoted verbatim, a solid one third of this is just quotes. Also lots of time spent on picking out repetitions (themes, characters, descriptions) between all her novels. Lots of weird comparisons to Martin Amis. Who cares about Martin Amis? Some small insights but I read this to know more about how Lisa Jewell writes and left disappointed.
