    2.0 out of 5 stars Just one long interview
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 December 2008

    I think this is a book for real fans only. I was expecting the story of from when Girls Aloud won Popstars The Rivals to present day, but although it did start out roughly from the beginning, it then jumps around all over the place. It nevers seems to be able to concentrate on one particular person but all 5 girls contribute with their thoughts on the particular subject of the chapter, which means that it never really flows as a story.
    I would have preferred the book to be split into equal seperate sections on each girl giving her story from the start to present day, but this is just like reading one long interview. If I wanted that I could have bought Heat.
    Sorry to upset the real fans but I cannot recommend this book if you are looking for an autobiography.

    The book was structured in a way that's very easy-to-read. The girls seem so down-to-earth and geniune. I feel like I could relate to and sympathize with each and every single one of them, even Sarah who, before I read this book, seemed to out-there for me. After reading, I have so much more respect for the girls as they worked so hard to get to where they are.
