Where Did it All Go Right?

Andrew Collins

This is a memoir written by someone who occasionally wishes life had dealt him a few more more juicy marketable blows. The author, music journalist Andrew Collins, delves back into his past - growing up in the 1970s - using the diary he kept from the age of five.

I agree with Avocatore about the diary bits, but this is a hugely enjoyable read. Collins comes across as a thoroughly likeable person.

The diary bits become boring once he hits adolescence (less cute, more self indulgent and longer), but the adult retrospective is quite fun. It is nice to have an antidote to all of the horrible 'I had my leg torn off by a rottweiler/was a teenage alcoholic' stories.
