The Tw*t Files by Dawn French

 A hugely-relatable, funny, honest and inspirational 'memoir of sorts' in which Dawn celebrates what it means to be gloriously, messily human.

 

When I was younger I wanted to be an interesting, sophisticated, semi-heroic, multi-layered person.

BUT. That kind of perfect is impossible. Being an actual twat is much the real me. Sorry to boast, but I am a champion twat.

In The Twat Files I will tell you about all the times I've been a total and utter twat. The moments where I've misunderstood stuff and messed up. My hope is that these stories might fire up yer engines to remind you of just what a massive twat you also are.

Let's celebrate and revel in this most delightful of traits together. That would be perfectly twatty.


I absolutely love Dawn French, I mean who doesn’t, and I remember reading Dear Fatty a long time ago, so I was looking forward to listening to this one. I love that she narrated it herself too. 


Dawn is hilarious, and she has so many stories in this book.It’s all about how you can be a Tw*t, and she tells her many stories of when she was one. I laughed so hard at some of her tales, almost drifting off with her anesthesia and telling the surgeon not to let her die as she’s a national treasure )which she obviously is), but how funny. Turning up with Mr French at Elton John’s house party, dressed in an outfit that even Elton didn’t know who they were under their costumes! 


If you like funny memoirs, a good laugh, and a realization that you’re sometimes a tw*t too, then I’d definitely recommend this one.
