I’ve been waiting to read Chronicles: Volume One by Bob Dylan for ages. When I first read about it I requested it from my local library, along with several hundred other people. I’m still on that list.
If you’ve read this book, please leave a message in the comments section. I’d love to know if you thought it was worth reading. I’ve always been a bit of a Dylan fan.

After coming across the news that Meg Ryan is considering writing her autobiography I couldn’t help but google who else has this idea in mind.
A quick search revealed Kathleen Turner here; John Travolta here; Kate Moss here; Angelina Jolie here, Sean Connery here; Kylie Minogue here; and that Ian McKellen refuses to write his until he knows how he will die.
Along with the 40 people on 43things who want to write their autobiographies, my advice is – I sure hope they’re keeping a journal.
