by Simon Pegg
Yeah... so, this was pretty much awesome. I really love Simon Pegg's brand of humor, and I spent a pretty large portion of this book giggling a little too loudly and a little too long. It was actually a little awkward, and there was a moment while listening to this in line at the store (needed kitty...
Simon Pegg wrote a book?! He narrates an audio version of it! I just piddled my pants!Dear review readers, please realize you are looking at a five star rating of the most gratuitous kind. Because I don't have the womb capacity to physically bear Simon Pegg's babies, giving his book an extra star or...
Maybe my expectations were too high because I enjoy Simon Pegg, but this was only ok. I didn't connect with it very well (despite growing up at the same time with some similar TV/movie experiences), timelines were hard to follow and I was disappointed with the last few chapters.
Simon Pegg writes just as I expected him to and reading this books is almost like sitting down and listening to an interview with him.

There were parts that were very funny but for me it bogged down too many times in the minutiae of "what Simon was doing in school and with whom". Also, this isn't a cr...
Simon Pegg is one of my all-time favourite comedy actors (and writers) after watching Shaun of the Dead a few years ago and marvelling at him starring in Rik Mayall's and Ade Edmondson's Guest House Paradiso. Now, I'm not a big autobiography fan. If it was written by a comedien or someone comic (wit...
I know this isn't my usual YA fiction that I review most of the time, as it is a memoir of an adult comic. However, it does fit in with my love of YA in some ways. The fact that I am such a big fan that I have to read about things I love, and I love Simon Pegg movies! He is also quite the "fanboy...
An interesting book. While his acting work appears throughout the book, it is given little space. An in depth look at his acting career will have to wait for another day, as this book focuses more on his life story, pre-fame, and the popular culture that influenced his career.The book includes a fic...
