Just Ignore Him by Alan Davies
3.0
Started this years reading journey with something different. I used to love an autobiography but have steered away from them in recent years.
I like Alan Davies but knew nothing about him, we’d seen the book discussed on Sara Cox’s book club which is why I picked it up.
His story is shocking and utterly heartbreaking and while I came away feeling so sad for him, I also felt that at times he was quite unpleasant. So conflicted though as I can totally see why he was the way he was at times, but the world of celebrity means we already think we know it all and have made our judgement of that person.
Think it’s put me off autobiographies for a while..
