Some of the chapters were interesting. I enjoyed reading about the custom made shirts and shoes. But when I read him write about choosing between buying an apartment in London, then deciding it was cheaper to just pay 9 thousand a week to rent a hotel room he lost me. He started the book by telling how he could only afford to do these things because his publisher would pay the bills, then talks about paying 9000 a week at a hotel. Umm, yeah. Honey, you are very far from being a poor writer.
