304 Pages, Borrowed from Mobile Library (as our Local Library was undergoing renovations. I wish we could always have a mobile library, I loved using it!)If you're any way familiar with the Scots comedian Frankie Boyle you'll know he isn't known for "pulling his punches" when it comes to jokes...or politicians...or celebrities...or pretty much anything.
He has been called the "dark heart of comedy" and that's not far from the truth.
Having said that, I think Frankie Boyle is a comedy genius right up there with Lenny Bruce and Peter Cook. I found myself laughing out loud on a few occasions while reading this and that's a rare thing, especially when it comes to autobiographies.
If you like Frankie Boyle's humour, you'll love this book. If you don't like him or his comedy, maybe skip the book and go grow a sense of humour.
I award this book 5 "Family-sized Blocks of Cheese" out of 5!
