Can I join? I'm reading Richard Hammond at the moment and just finished Richard Whitely before that (not an intentional Richard theme!).

I've read Darius' (and it was surprisingly interesting!)

Actually, I've got Dawkins! Definitely a theme developing here.

I get most of mine from the library, to be honest. The biography section is right next to the kids section in our library so it's the only bit I get to browse in peace. Charity shops are great - love them!

I went through a comedian phase and read Clary, both Billy Connolly's and Frank Skinner. The Billys were okay but I can't remember anything about the Frank one - obviously didn't make a big impression!

I used to buy these from charity shops too! I had a Beryl Reid one (!), also Rachel Roberts, Tina Turner etc.

Would love to join this book club

It's amazing the stuff I will read if it's given to me (Darius) or charity shop. Ours is really really cheap. Right I'm off shopping now

i love eartha kitt's autobiog and errol flynn's, the feelthy bastard.

DH has loads of footballer ones - they are all pretty similar

Poor background (you were lucky we lived 28 to a cupboard etc etc)
Play football
Get famous
Get drunk
Shag women
See light
Sober and rich from book sales

i think that was gable. flynn liked very young girls... his wicked, wicked ways...

What's the most surprising thing you've ever learnt about anyone from a celeb biography? I read David Coulthard's and he goes on quite a bit about toilets. Seems he's got a bit of a thing about clean toilets and will happily get his marigolds on and his loo brush out.

i read Jool's Hollands, got it for xmas ( i am fan).

It was quite good, but a little too factual, I wanted to know a bit more about the man himself.

Used to live in greenwich tho, so was interesting to see familiar names.

I read Daniel Day Lewis's one yrs ago, that was very appetising!

All celebs are a bit self obsessed but thought that Rupert Everett won the prize

Am I sick and ill in the head to be secretly hankering to read Kerry Katona (shoot me now)

Love diaries as well as biogs - do they count? Re reading Alaistair Campbell at the moment (I think I may have a crush - I am obviously beyond all help known to man)
