A review by ginger_curmudgeon
The Twat Files by Dawn French

funny lighthearted

4.0

I’m a fan of Dawn French, and not because of a certain wizard-related movie she appeared in. Vicar of Dibley is hilarious and is one of my favorite shows. 

I digress. 

I watched her “Dawn French is a Huge Twat” special and it was hilarious so I expected the book to be funny as well. It delivered. There are stories in here that weren’t in the special and details included in others that weren’t in the special either. 

The stories that made me laugh the most are the ones where she peed herself. 

There’s a part toward the end where she talks about owning our mistakes, the moments where we’re twats. She talks about how owning our mistakes takes away their power while also allowing for growth. I wasn’t expecting that part, but I appreciate that she included it.
