Book Reviews of I Don't Mean to be Rude, But...: The Truth About Fame, Fortune and My Life in Music
Book Review: An inspirational read, especially if your a pop wanabe!
Summary: 4 Stars
Now firstly I am not a pop wanabe myself, just a nosey person how likes to read about others and a fan of Pop Idol.Having read very few books in my life in their entirity, managing to read this from cover to cover in a week must say something good for it.
Simon gives a vey honest account of his career path, from being the mail boy to where he is today. I found the book very inspirational as Simon proves that with determination and ambition, you can acheive your goals in life.
The only down side to this book for me personally was that last couple of chapters as Simon goes on to explain how to get into the music industry if you are a budding pop wanabe, which as I have said - I'm not!
Besides this, I found it a very easy and compelling read.
