Critics Review
[A] touching testament to their lifetime’s work, a delightful bedtime story for the Smash Hits generation. – Best Music Books of 2020 * Sunday Times *
Really Saying Something is not the most explicit rock memoir ever, but it may be the happiest. Written in alternate passages over the lockdown, it reassures fans that their idols were having as much fun as they looked like they were in their big hair, floppy dungarees and not quite matching stripy T-shirts on Top of the Pops. * The Times *
It’s that friendship between Dallin and Woodward that lies at the heart of this engaging, entertaining memoir that recounts career highs and lows, motherhood, break-ups and the menopause….It’s all brilliantly recounted. * Mirror *
[P]romises to be one of the most entertaining celebrity memoirs of the year * i paper *
A blast. * Metro *
[I] really enjoyed it. The thing that really shines through is the friendship. It’s an extraordinary shared life. – Fi Glover
Bananarama’s captivating new memoir is named after their second hit single, Really Saying Something, but the group’s incredible story is better encapsulated by their first: It Ain’t What You Do (It’s the Way That You Do It). * i News *
Written with humour and authenticity, and filled with never-before-seen photos, this book tells the story of one of the most successful all-female groups ever.
* Woman & Home *[I]t’s a wonderful, pantomime-like story of self-invention and continuous reinvention. * Literary Review *
Dallin and Woodward’s friendship is life-affirming. * i paper *
