In Geordie Shore star Scotty T's first ever book, we hear the tearaway 'Toon's exclusive, behind-the-scenes account of the MTV show. If you thought Scotty T's outrageous behaviour on Geordie Shore was just for the cameras, think again. Long before starring in the show, Scotty was living life to the fullest and getting up to all sorts. In this hilarious page turner, Scotty T will not only let slip scandalous secrets from Geordie Shore, Ex on the Beach and Celebrity Big Brother, but will open up about his antics when the cameras stop rolling. But it's not all sex, fights and getting mortal! Scotty also reveals a surprisingly softer side and opens up about living with ADHD, coping with the breakdown of his parents’ marriage and picking up the pieces after the loss of a loved one. The rascal also reflects on the lasses who have tried and failed to tame his heart and introduces us to the love of his life who has been living in the shadows all this time. And if all that wasn't enough, Scotty explains why he loves maths so much, what it was like to join the Neighbours cast, plus finally admits what he really thinks about his castmates, why he was nearly kicked off the show by producers and what life has in store for him after Geordie Shore.
a fun quick read - i could hear scotty’s voice the whole time. i would have enjoyed some more talk about his ocd, because otherwise this is the very generic tales of a young lad experiences, but enjoyable nonetheless.
There's lots of things to dislike about this book. It spends far too much time describing Scott's childhood. Throughout much of his life, Scott was a thoroughly unpleasant and antisocial idiot - which I have no real problem with, but his anecdotes from this time, are told with a kind of pride that makes him seem like an equally unpleasant adult.
Nevertheless, as you get further towards the end of the book, and Scott starts talking about his television work, it does become more entertaining.
Overall, I'm sad that I won't get the time back that I spent reading this book, and I suspect that I became more stupid while reading it.
A quick and easy read packed full of anecdotes, I like the way Scott showed his feelings towards his grandfather allowing us to see a deeper side of him. On the whole I think best for Geordie Shore fans only.
