A review by bmktaylor
This is Not a Book About Benedict Cumberbatch by Tabitha Carvan

5.0

This book has changed my life. Reading it has made me see the intrinsic value of seeking out joy in my everyday life. It sounds so simple, but by leaning into that joy I can be uniquely and unashamedly myself. It also made me realise with a jolt how we have been taught to dismiss women and girl's interests and passions, and the terrible price we all pay for that.

BC isn't my cup of tea, but as the title says - the book's not about him. It's given me clues about what makes me tick and how to find my bliss.

Tabitha's writing is gaffaw-out-loud funny, insightful and assured. Reading it felt like being on a mesmerising ride that I never wanted to end.
