About this deal

Unfortunately, I found this quite boring. This was due to the style it was written in and felt disjointed and not well written. It had moments of humour, and I liked that it was trying to get across some key messages such as work hard and her experiences with bullies.

This is her autobiography, but it is more of a self-help book. She tells the story of her life and struggles with no self-pity, insight, and a lot of humor. She tries to help others while telling it. She is always positive.

First of all, I read this because I am a fan of Sarah Millican. I have seen her live and watched many of her DVDs and wandered around YouTube listening to bits and pieces. There is something about what she talks about in her stand up and general day life that makes me smile, laugh out loud and totally relate to. If you are a fan of Sarah's this is a must read.

How to be Champion has landed itself firmly on the Champion shelf. It's not the best, the worst, the most ahreet (alright but a bit more Yorkshire) or the least not bad. It's Champion. Aye. Of course there is some crossover in her stand up routines and this book. Clearly a lot of material came from real experiences. But if you laughed once, trust me you will laugh again and again. I did a lot of laughing out loud and it was a good job I was on my own in bed!

I'm not usually a fan of autobiographies but this is not a typical trawl through a celebrity's past.

As an example, having found a tin of marrowfat peas in her cupoard: "I'm quite new to peas. They were one of the things I definitely didn’t like as a child without ever having tried them. Turns out they're really nice, though. I only dabble in garden peas. I've heard they are a gateway pea." And the book ends with a wonderful extended riff on baking a cake, with a real recipe in there, too.
