Been avoiding long books as the last few over 500 pages have really been a slog to get through. But got this one as a gift so should give it at least a go.

Feet are mentioned a lot

Reading with OM

What I can tell so far is the author likes cats, smoking, Evian water, and thinks women should always wear make-up to work. Also that refugees should recieve low Uber ratings if they can't find their cats in a war zone. I wish this book was just the plot to the crimes as that's quite interesting. Not a fan of much else.

If Poirot was a mouse. Amazing!

Re-reading <3

Couldn't make it past page two. Will see if I pick it up again, but I doubt it.

Part of a Halloween book swap at work

Bedtime story with Original Monster. Accidentally made him Brummie, seems the only accent I can do 🤣

I feel like this book hasn't seen an editor. Maybe it's to enhance the authentic and chaotic nature of a drug addict author, but it reads all wrong. Not sure whether to continue, which is a shame as I'm sure there's more interesting moments in it.

So far very gripping and dark, looking forward to finding out more.

Continuity error - is Robyn wearing flats or heels? Pg157 vs pg215

Enjoying it so far, but does feel like the neverending story, how am I less than halfway still!?

I normally find comedian autobiographies an easy read, they satisfy my need for a laugh and to be nosey at the same time. But I'm finding this one difficult and slightly boring. I get that the premise is his life around food, but he could lay off speaking down about "fat" people even if he says he was one.

I'm putting this one down. I've given it 100 pages and I'm not hooked. Maybe I'll pick it up again but for now it's not worth the energy of carrying the massive book around!

I'm beginning to understand it more, and maybe the obsession with attractiveness of the characters has more to the plot than I thought. It's 3am, so I know it's a good book.

It's written well, and I know I'm going to race through it, but every mention of how attractive someone is or how skinny someone is and how they link together is just wrong, I hate that this is seen as a normal message in so many books. Why is it necessary? And its not just the characters opinion of themselves, its clearly how the author sees the world as all characters are described based on their attractiveness 1st
