Just Ignore Him by Alan Davies
5.0
Started binge-watching QI like CRAZY this summer and Alan made me crack up so much while I was watching so I followed his Twitter and saw he put out a memoir late last year. In a rush to express my admiration for one of my new favorite comedians I bought an e-version his memoir with a Barnes and Noble giftcard I had from my birthday and signed up for a free Audible trial to listen along while I read it.
Honestly? I was not prepared to read this but I was so excited to learn more about Alan and his story. The whole book is a heavy read (of course with good humor tucked into places where it’s appropriate) but I always come back to the chapter Fingers. It’s beautifully written and Alan’s love for his mom seeps through the words he writes. I don’t think I’ve read a book with so much real emotion in it. I loved it. <3
