BRILLIANT5
A brilliant book by the greatest tabloid journalist of the past twenty years.
This is so hot that they should give ice cubes with every copy. Piers was brilliant on the Bizarre pop column, the best Editor since kelvin McKenzie and is fantastic as a TV pundit / celebrity.
This is the second best book I have read in a decade, only topped by Bushell Off The Box by Garry Johnson.
The warts and all look at Garry Bushell who worked for Piers at The Sun - and Bushell who HATES everyone and everything even praises Piers on the pages of that book.
So doesnt that prove that PIERS really is a op bloke. Hated by Cherie Blair and loved by Garry Bushell.
And that is why Piers is a massive hit with the general public - a genuis with the common touch.

Read ALL about it!5
Wow, being a Clarkson fan I didn't think I would like Piers Morgan's book very much, but I had a long-haul flight to get through so I thought I would give it a go. And an excellent decision it proved.

Picking it up I worried that it would only be a superfluous collection of amusing anecdotes revolving around celebrities, which is fine for 1 page in a Mail on Sunday column but would almost certainly leave me reaching for the sickbag after more that half an hours reading, so to my sheer delight I was surprised to discover that there was so much more contained within this book. Fascinating and incredibly candid insights into the world of politics and media, and Morgan's personal relationships with the movers and shakers that really did surprise me. I was so gripped that this really was a book that I have to say was virtually unputdownable!

I laughed out loud reading Morgan's version of events in his feud with Clarkson, and reading between the lines I would say that, amazingly, he holds the higher moral ground than my favourite Times columnist!!

There are many, many other laugh out loud moments including this snippet from Stephen Fry "The new definition of "countryside" is the murder of Piers Morgan" - I'm not sure too many of the people shown up in this book would disagree with this sentiment.

All in a great book. Buy it.

Informative, hilarious and well written5
Highly recommended book if you like the world of media and politics. Well written and easy to read.
