Dear Fatty by Dawn French

This Thursday I was in town to do some groceryshopping. I walked into my favorite bookstore to see if the book I ordered was in. It was and I took it home. I started reading straight away. I haven't finished it yet, but it is a wonderful book already. Dear Fatty is written by Dawn French a great English comedian. It is a sort of biography, but then different. Dawn wrote letters to people she cares about and she is or was fan of. It is not a normal biography. This is much more fun. I love to read biographies, but most of them are just a story of someones life. A summing up of time. This one is totally different. It goes from young Dawn to older Dawn and back. She writes very funny and witty. She makes me see that I can be happy with the person I am. She writes about being fat, which I am not, in one letter I read. And the way she does it really makes me laugh and look at myself in a different way. She is talking about having 3 chins and having problems to buy bras in size 42H (I had no idea they had them in that size), and it is very recognizable, even though I have another shape of body then Dawn. I like her as comedian and she is a good writer too. It seems that this will be the only book she will ever write, but it really is a recomandation for those of you who want to have a laugh, but also want to read about Dawns life. Some of the letters are emotional aswell and Dawn captures it all so well. This book, not finished yet, is worth its money.
