My Thoughts
Tan France is my favorite member of the Fab 5 so when I saw he was writing a book with a hilarious title I knew I had to read it. It was everything I hoped for.
Each chapter has a title using an article of clothing or piece of fashion that is featured in the story told in that chapter. France uses fashion to discuss every aspect of his life, from when he was a young boy through getting hired for Queer Eye.
This book reads very quickly and France is very open about private topics that affected his life, including a bout of depression leading to suicidal thoughts. Now, I promise that the whole book is not deep and sad, for most of it I was smiling and there were some parts where I definitely laughed out loud to myself. One such part was when the author was discussing how he came to his signature haircut and the unfortunate hair choices he made in the past.
Tan does discuss Queer Eye and the rest of the Fab 5, but this book is not really about that. It is about his journey to get there, so the show is a smaller portion toward the end of the book about how he was hired and what it is like to be famous as an introvert.
This book was a fun summer read so I hope you check it out!
