A nice, quick read but not a keeper.

I think I have now read all of Sylvia's autobiographies. She was just a regular person writing about her holidays / vacations. She doesn't go into any great detail, the reader doesn't really learn anything about anything, and nothing majorly exciting, funny, or awful happens. But for some reason I can't stop turning the pages. Sylvia was working on a book about the men in her life when she died in 2013.

Sylvia Smith (2 May 1945 – 23 February 2013) was a British author.

I liked this book. It was just quick, easy to read snippets of quirky things that may (or may not) have really happened at the office, with boyfriends, or just day-to-day events. I don't care if anything was real or not. The point was they were all interesting to read.

I did not, however, find the writing humorous at all. I didn't laugh or snort as other readers have.

A selection of short pieces by the author in which she mentioned "things that go wrong" in her life and in the lives of other people. Quite entertaining, moderately funny, and I keep meaning to look for other books she has written.
