Rod: The Autobiography

He is enjoyably gossipyabout friends such as Elton John and about his many exes — including Britt Ekland, who loved making eggy bread for his bandmates, and his former wife Rachel Hunter, the only one to have broken his heart. Written in a cheery, faintly ironic style (there’s even a chapter devoted to his haircut), this is a very enjoyable romp.

DAILY MAIL

...the book is funny, vivid and even, at times, self-critical...

Daily Telegraph

[Rod] has warm good humour and a nice line in self-deprecation...He wears it well—and tells it even better.

Daily Mail

…amiably and self-knowingly told... the tone pitched right and the jokes good…He writes articulately about music: where a drummer sits on the beat, or what makes a song bombproof. It's the work of someone who really knows his craft, and loves it.

Guardian

A rollicking rock'nroll story.

The Scotsman

Different Scene

In Rod Stewart’s raucous, laddish autobiography….his attitude towards women in his life is frequently indefensible but otherwise it’s often laugh-out-load funny

Herald

It really is a rollercoaster ride...It’s a proper book. It’s not frothy. It’s not candy flossy...It is no holds barred. You wrote it yourself, it’s so obvious. It’s your voice all the way through

Chris Evans

It’s a brisk romp of a read

Lynn Barber, The Sunday Times

It’s impossible not to warm to him in this account of booze, drugs and blondes…The tales of on-the-road bad behavior…leave nothing to the imagination…his painful admission of how ex-wife Rachel Hunter broke his heart reveal a man happy to wear his heart on his sleeve….And he wears it well…

Best

Rod Stewart's fascinating autobiography is a colourful account of an extraordinary life

Hello!

Ruthlessly entertaining

telegraph.co.uk

The tone is droll, surprisingly self-deprecating for such an apparent narcissist, and full of deadpan humour. There are whole chapters here where every page made me laugh out loud, hilarious anecdotes as finely honed as anything in Keith Richards’ Life.

Uncut Magazine

This book takes readers on an adventure, that is at times deeply moving, through the life of one of the UK's greatest singers.

Hello! online

What we loved about this book is the feeling that you are having a personal conversation with Rod Stewart … highly recommended!
