Review of 'Believe Me' on 'Goodreads'

What the actual damn hell is going on here? That was the fastest I've ever put down a book after starting it. I've watched Eddie Izzard's standup, have watched him on television and in movies, and have followed his running career. I'm a fan.

But I'm not going to sit through an entire book of him doing whatever it is he's doing here. He sounds unprepared, uninterested, unprofessional, and as though he's just making it up as he goes along.

If you remain interested in reading this book, consider the print copy over the audio version. Hopefully it's a little more coherent.
