REVIEW: -"I thought this was a well-written autobiography from someone who has reinvented himself a number of times over the years. (I quite liked Lily Savage in days gone by). It was interesting to hear of Paul's childhood and his adventures and experiences trying to establish his true/main sexual preferences. It did get a bit raunchy at times, but I was pleased that the author didn't resort to too much vulgar language and swearing which normally annoys me and spoils my enjoyment of a book somewhat.
I have now put the remaining 3 instalments of his autobiography on my wishlist as I'm keen to know what happened next to Paul from age 18 onwards. Not least because he left me on a cliffhanger......."
Reserved for my husband in the first instance and thereafter for my friend Lin.

REVIEW:- (By my husband)" I thought the book was well-written, but I don't think I'd be up for reading the other three volumes of the author's autobiography. He was certainly a bit of a rogue-and probably still is!"

This book will be given to my friend Lin as she is keen to read it. Sadly Paul has recently passed away. RIP.

When re-releasing this book please be aware that airports are not a good place to leave books unless they have a specific book exchange shelf or area, due to security problems, so they may well just be disposed of. Also charity shops may well discard books that have been labelled in any way and they mostly chose only the books in the very best condition
to place on their shelves and discard the rest-so another bad release option.
