Customer Reviews

Depp a review by Julie Currie
A brilliant Book. Easy to read. An excellant insight into the life of Johnny Depp. Lovely photos. It makes you realise that Depp is not just a pretty face. He has had a facinating life so far, good times and bad. A brilliant read.

Johnny Depp
I loved this book all about the gorgeous Johnny Depps life, I found it fascinating to learn about all his life and the films that he was in before he stared in one of the best films of our times Pirates of the Caribbean-The Curse of the Black Pearl. Which is really worth seeing. Even though this book has its flaws it is definately worth reading. If you, as I do want to learn more about this misterious yet gorgeous man then this is definately the book for you.
