The Wanted: The Unauthorized Biography

The story of the boys of The Wanted, from their family backgrounds and early singing careers to their current massive fanbase and sell-out concerts  Max George, Siva Kaneswaran, Tom Parker, Nathan Sykes, and James McGuiness—the members of The Wanted are synonymous with young, cool, and successful. The amazing and inspirational story of how they have risen to stardom, as well as fascinating details about each of the boys and their backgrounds, is set to be gripping reading for their growing number of fans. After facing grueling mass-auditions to be part of the band, the five boys moved into an apartment together in London, where they quickly developed a strong bond. Now working on their third studio album, with a track written by rapper Example as well as a duet featuring Rihanna and a collaboration with Dappy, this is The Wanted's most ambitious project yet. With worldwide fame now so firmly in their sights, this uber cool boyband has taken the charts by storm—and has won the hearts of millions of fans in the process.

Well, seems to me im the first one to review this book here on goodreads.
Found this book in my local discount book shop. "Was £11.99 Now £2.99"
£11.99 for this book was a bit drastic in my opinion. It was a very good book, but i wouldn't pay the full price if i were you.
I am a very obsesive "The Wanted" fan, but reading this book brought me closer to that asumption.
There are a lot of things that this book give, that i never knew; Max was in a boyband called Avenue, who went to x factot, got to the judges houses and then got disqualified; Siva and Jay both have twin brothers, and tom got his nipple burnt celebrating the news "All time low" got to number 1.
It was a good read and did contain much more information, which im sure any fan would be eager to know.
The only bad thing i have to say, and this is to the author mainly, your are writing a book about "The Wanted" Not Take That or East 17. It's alright to compare them, because there are some big similarities, but then taking it one further, and talking about Take That's lives, is not what i brought the book for.
Any fan should have this on their bookshelf!
Happy Reading...
