"Loved it"
Witty, informative, engaging.
I don't usually read memoirs.
Samantha Bond sounds so much like Judi Dench, that you forget it isn't Judi reading to you.
Wonderfully laugh-out-loud funny in places,and also very generous with emotion and appreciation for her friends and family.
It transports you into the world ot theater and film, with Judi Dench as your guide. Who better? I came away wanting to see much more theater, and more of Ms. Dench. It isn't gossipy, so if that's what you are seeking, look elsewhere. A class act.
