Tom Allen is one of the funniest comedians in the UK, the best dressed man I know and now it turns out he is a superb writer. I hate him.

Wonderfully funny, utterly charming and sharp as all Hell. Just like the man himself.

This hilarious and touching autobiography is like a turbo charged episode of Terry and June. (Google it young people) . . . a delightful, touching side-splitter.

An absolute joy! Funny, witty and totally charming. You’ll love him even more after reading this.

Tom’s rich and unique comic voice bounces off the page beautifully

This book is brilliant, funny and thoughtful just like Tom. I loved it!

It’s very funny but it is also heart-breaking and very sweet. It’s everything you want in a book

This book is in turns extremely funny and achingly sad

Very funny as you would expect, but also quite sad sometimes…this is all about making all of us feel a bit less weird

A great read and very funny

It’s a delight. It’s funny and sweet and charming

I inhaled it, I absolutely loved it

Tom recounts the peaks and lows adolescence… all suffused with his trademark caustic observational wit
