Even more amazing than I thought it would be,
By Kettercat (Israel) - See all my reviews
This review is from: True: The Autobiography of Martin Kemp (Hardcover)
I have to admit I'm absolutely addicted to autobiographies, but I never expected anything to be as good as Martin Kemp's True. This book is purely amazing - when you read it you just can't believe this man's gone through all this. It seems more like a novel rather than an autobiography, Martin could have had another career other than an actor and a musician to me. This book honestly makes you appreciate life and cherish what you've got. Anyone, and I honestly mean - anyone, would enjoy this book. I would rate it 10 starts if I could.

Amazing stuff from Martin Kemp,
By A Customer
This review is from: True: The Autobiography of Martin Kemp (Hardcover)
I just couldn't put this down. So enlightening to read. From initially finding his first brain tumour to recollecting on his childhood through years of pop stardom in Spandau Ballet. You honestly feel like it could be someone close to you when you read his heart opening account of his fight against finding another tumour. Such a good read. Excellent stuff Martin, now we want the follow up or how about Shirlie doing a book through her eyes. Absolutely great.

TRULY ENJOYABLE,
By
This review is from: True: The Autobiography of Martin Kemp (Hardcover)
This book is much more than reflection of the Spandau Ballet years (though their story is very interesting when told here). It's about victory over adversity. It's sometimes funny and often sad. Worthwhile.
