With Nails: The Film Diaries of Richard E Grant - Surprisingly bitchy, and made me question his sexuality even more. Stuff about his other films was interesting enough for me to carry on reading after the Withnail part. 6.5/10
Id recommend 2 recent reads: Crash And Burn by Artie Lange 8/10.
Ghosts Of Manila by Mark Kram 8/10.

Re audiobooks i listen to them on holiday whilst on the beach round the pool. You need a decent narrator but they can be quite good, gone girl for example s pure trash but actually turned out really good listening to it. Same with most page turner thrillers i suppose.

I Killed: True Stories From The Road - Some great stories in this, and a good insight into Comedians on the road, especially during the late 80s comedy boom. Chris Rock, Seinfeld, Jay Leno, Mike Myers, Bill Hicks, Sam Kinnison, George Carlin, Larry David and loads that ive never heard of. 7.5/10
The Comedy Writer by Peter Farrelly - Not sure how much of this is autobiographical, but its a very funny and well written portrait of a struggling Hollywood Script Writer. 8/10
Stories I Only Tell My Friends by Rob Lowe - Think this was recommended on a website and was better than i thought it would be. Quite an intelligent bloke, and good enough for me to buy his next book which has just come out. Masterfully skims over the part about being done for having a threesome with under age girls though. 6.5/10
Anyone recommend me any other books by/about comedians?
Ive read Bill Hicks, George Carlin, Marc Maron, Artie Lange fairly recently, all were good.
