Bonkers: My Life in Laughs

By Saunders' own admission, this is a book of memories rather than a rigidly told chronological diary so to speak, so time frames are lax and fluid.

Her university application process? Sounds a lot like my own. My own mother, like Jennifer's, was more delighted at the prospect of having their child attend university than I was. My own bedroom resembles her own, with my laundry exploding everywhere. She also turns out to be a massive procrastinator as well, something I'm guilty of myself.

‘Bonkers' takes us on a journey of some of the highs and lows of Saunders' professional and personal life and perhaps I did cheat somewhat by having this read to me by the author herself, and that's partly why I enjoyed it so much.

While not being a perfect book, it has made me chuckle quite a lot with Saunders' various voices and sheer joy for comedy booming out of my headphones.
