Product Description
Review
‘A hyper-active stream-of-consciousness confession which is both very funny and unexpectedly touching!’ (Joanna Lumley )
‘DOES MY BUM LOOK BIG IN THIS? This was a question that had to be asked and thank God someone has had the courage to answer it. This is Weir's first, and in my view by far her best, work to date.’ (Angus Deayton )
‘Interestingly, Arabella herself doesn't have a big bum at all, it's really quite small. In fact, we're happy to tell the whole world about just how small it is, honestly, we are, just as soon as she stops sitting on us.’ (
Paul Whitehouse & Charlie Higson )
‘This book does for bums what Cyrano de Bergerac did for noses.’ (Alexei Sayle )

Absolutely Fabulous,
By A Customer
This review is from: Does my bum look big in this?: The Diary of an Insecure Woman (Paperback)
I thought this book was very entertaining and Arabella Weir gave a really good impression of a thirty-something woman's life.I have read this book at least four times and each time i find the story funny. She made the book fun but included some seriousness into the woman's life. She showed how some small things can rule a person's life and how love made this life so much better. She helped people see that what other people think of you should not rule your life.

The funniest thing in a long time!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Does My Bum Look Big in This?: The Diary of an Insecure Woman (Hodder Summer Reading) (Paperback)
Arabella Weir had me in stitches with this book. I must have read it at least a dozen times now and every time it still has the same effect. Jaqueline M Payne is so irritatingly paranoid that its funny, what with falling over on holiday in front of her work colleagues to berating "Downstairs Man" over the state of the drains and then pretending she had an anyerism to getting so drunk while on a date that her PNB (potential new boyfriend) had to carry her home and put her to bed! Jackie is so funny in this book and it brings some light relief to your own world. I enjoyed this book so much that I bought it on Audio Tape. I would recommend this book to anyone, I found it hysterical at times, even though Jackie is a bit too paranoid to be believable on occasions and you do sometimes get annoyed with her penchant for disecting every nuance of a conversation and thinking that everyone thinks the worst of her. However, that aside the scrapes and situations she finds herself in are so cringeworthy its hilarious. Definitly worth a read if you want a good laugh!

Really Funny, a good book,
By Venus - the book lover (Surrey, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Does My Bum Look Big in This?: The Diary of an Insecure Woman (Hodder Summer Reading) (Paperback)
This is the the normal book that i would make a bee- line for in Waterstones but i read it all the same as a light read. I was on a train at the time and had tears rolling down my face with laughter! This was a good book and it's on that i have passed onto my friends and family to read and they have all agreed that this book is very funny. Well worth a light read!
