This was "Quite" good I don't want to overhype this as that would go against advice of Claudia...
Honestly, Claudia should tour a one-woman show. Her dry sense of humor will have you chuckling constantly throughout this book. Her take on the world and society is truly hilarious. From baby goats to tube etiquette - its all covered, in a hilarious way.
I like how this wasn't a typical autobiography, more a funny take on life and situations.
I'd recommend the audiobook to accompany as it really brings it to life and her sense of humor comes through massively.

'Quite' reads more like a guide to life for 30-40 year old women than a biography, but Winkleman knows her brand and who she is, and she's funny.
Tongue-in-cheek, endlessly positive, easy to listen to (though she does talk very quickly if you listen on audio), and uplifting. Pick up if you need cheering up.

Skim read through this book after reading the first “chapter”.
The blurb doesn’t give much away about the content of the book, although like most people I assumed it would be a sort of memoir/autobiography on Claudia Winkleman’s life and her career etc.
However, this book doesn’t seem to have a true purpose; it seems like a compilation of various random opinions on different topics. There isn’t much structure or insightful take-away from this book.

I think this is the quickest I have finished a book in a long time. I just could not put this one down. Absolutely loved every moment. Ms. Winkleman leaps off the page in every chapter and it is thoroughly enjoyable to experience. Already loved this lady, but this made me love her even more. I really hope she will consider a sequel. You can bet it would be snapped up in a heartbeat. Wonderful!
