A fairly decent read. The sytle of writing makes it difficult to follow at times but nevertheless a good story line. I didn't have high hopes for this but I can say I was plesantly surprised. A rather anti climatic ending with suggestions of another book to follow but nothing.
Confusing, funny, difficult yet eye opening read offering an insight to people who struggle to identify with themselves in society.

A truely moving first hand account of what happens within the NHS. The daily struggles faced not only by the inidividuals who are doctors but families aswell.
Heartbreakingly funny at points and the realism hits and the most unexpected times.
A wonderful readig experience documented to absolute perfection.

Truely amazing
A biogrpahy detailing his personal experiences throughout his life. How he realised he was gay, the motivation behind many of decisions.
Ross Mathews has perfectly delivered a biogrpahy about himself supplying you, the reader, with full on belly laughs and moments that you can relate to on a deep personal level.
Would highly recommend to anyone who strugglewith believing in themselves or anyone who is struggling to accept themself.
It might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it deffinetly floated my boat!
