Centique
Dear Fatty | Dawn French

Mehso-so

Although Dawn French is fabulous and there are some magical moments in this book, the structure of it didn‘t work for me. It‘s set out as a series of letters to different people in her life. In some of them she recounts her experiences and funny incidents and those are great - but in others she just tells her friends how much she loves them or writes satirical letters to famous people that were only vaguely funny ⬇️

Centique When she does talk about her life it is fascinating and sometimes very emotional. I get the feeling she structured it in the way she did to either add “filler” or to avoid getting deeper into difficult times in her life - which is fair enough. Just meant quite a few boring bits amongst the good bits for me. If you‘re a fan it‘s still worth it! 5y
LeeRHarry I loved her kissing tally 😂 5y
Centique @LeeRHarry yes! She‘s so funny - and gob smackingly honest at times 😂😂 5y
Rissreads I read this book years ago and I felt the same as you. It was just ok. 5y

Bought these four books at Books and Bits bookshop in Redcliffe, Australia. Wonderful little shop. Lots of reading time coming up on my 13.5 hour plane trip back to Canada. Have wanted to read Dawn French for a while. #dawnfrench#australia#celticlegends
