Difficult Second Book - Chris Moyles ... on his sofa, wearing only his underpants. Welcome to the real world of Chris Moyles. This book tries to get to the bottom of the double life of this award-winning broadcaster and hapless human being.

Following the success of his first book in 2006 it seemed inevitable that he would be writing a second, but just why it came so quickly after the first one seems a bit of a puzzle. I've still to read his first but when I seen this one on offer in Tesco I decided to pick it up and give it a go, but The Difficult Second Book wasn't just difficult in title, it was also difficult to read. The book is described as an insight into the double life that Moyles lives. In the mornings he is ...
