Many books claim to be funny. Few genuinely are. But Georgia Pritchett's memoir of her life so far really is genuinely very funny indeed. This ìs partly because she has years of experience as a comedy writer for radio, TV, stage and film. But it's also because she is so honest about the details of her often troubled life. Presented in short, very readable chapters which tackle everything from her early memories of worries about the childhood monsters living under her bed (she is concerned they will be uncomfortable on the hard surface and leaves out food for them) to her more grownup struggles with snail-infested flats, all male writing rooms and motherhood, this is a genuinely marvellous read.
