Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

The Sunday Times Number One Bestseller

Well hark at you, stumbling upon my autobiography. Bet you wouldn't have put money on that three years ago, eh? Please don't stress yourself out too much, though; it's actually socially acceptable nowadays that you're interested.

Firstly I'd like to emphasise that I have written this audiobook myself, so be assured you're getting the tooth, the whole tooth and nothing but the tooth! (Which was my original choice of title, but babe, we're so over that). This audiobook documents my story, year by year, from my humble beginnings growing up in the East End of London, becoming one of the nation's most talked-about people overnight to finally moving up the spectrum from guilty pleasure, and getting nearer to national treasure.

It will make you laugh, cry, and most importantly you'll discover who I really am. If it doesn't do any of those things, you're not legally entitled to a refund - just clearing that up ;-).

I hope you enjoy listening to this audiobook as much as I have enjoyed writing it. This book has been like therapy, and Lord was I in need. Enjoy!

Rylan, I love you more than ever xxx

It feels like you’re having a chat with Rylan over a cuppa, a fabulously read (by Rylan) account of Rylan’s journey. The language is a bit ripe in places, but I didn’t find it offensive, it formed an integral part of the narrative, and would not have been ‘Rylan’ without it.

Amazing

I fully expected to not really enjoy this but it's amazing. It's well written, funny, warm and real. Never really knew who Rylan was apart from guy with the teeth off X factor. Now I have a lot of respect for someone who clearly worked his balls off to achieve his dream. An inspiration.

I enjoyed listening very much to this book and it was made even better by the fact that Rylan read it himself. Fantastic good on you from one Essex girl to another xxxx

I want a Rylan in my life!

I loved how Rylan began his book and I loved how it ended. The bit inbetween was great too. He narrated his story as though he was talking just to you. This matey, chatty vibe made the audio really enjoyable and I felt special to being told all this inside info.
Rylan has always come across to me as such an honest, fair and decent guy who wears his heart on his sleeve, gets easily emotionally overwhelmed and has a great sense of fun.

Jo

Loved the honesty and casual way he reads, felt felt for him at times and laughed out loud at some of the funny stories. Great insight in to his determination to be successful.

Loved it and listened the whole thing over 3 days!
