Scenes from life- anecdotal, wicked and witty. This is 'Wossy' in his own words and at his best.

Why is catalogue shopping responsible for Jonathan Ross's inimitable sense of style?

Why might wearing cape and mask be a fast track to heaven?

Why does Jonathan wince every time he sees a Hoover?

And why did he fall in love with a deep-sea diver?

Why? Because this is Jonathan Ross. And nothing is out of bounds when it comes to talking about life as he knows it. From sex and pugs to rock 'n' roll and genital warts, Jonathan holds forth as only he can. This sharply observed, laugh-out-loud, outrageous page-turner will leave you asking just one question . . . Why didn't he write it sooner?

Reviews

Laugh-out-loud funny.
*Joan Bakewell, Guardian*

Hilarious anecdotes aplenty . . . For many of his fans, this will be the first time they get to know the real, likeable, human Jonathan Ross, beneath all the banter and bluster.
*Heat magazine*

Fluent and entertaining . . . this is a very agreeable ramble through the lively thoughts of a non-smoking, now non-drinking family man with a talent to amuse and enthuse.
*David Sexton, Evening Standard*

Taking us through his quirky view on life, including fashion, diets and, er, sweetshops this book is guaranteed to make you laugh out loud.
*Woman magazine*

In between the adolescent porn tales and the hilarious diarrhoea anecdotes, he is funny and acute and full of ideas.
*Private Eye*

A hilarious autobiography. "Why Do I Say These Things?" had me laughing out loud on several occasions. Very well written, I couldn't put it down! Jonathon Ross filled the book with self-deprecating humour and witty tales of his life , as well as several deeper musings. Highly recommended! I loved this book.
