A blast.

[I] really enjoyed it. The thing that really shines through is the friendship. It's an extraordinary shared life.

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).

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

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

Dallin and Woodward's friendship is life-affirming.

i paper

[A] touching testament to their lifetime's work, a delightful bedtime story for the Smash Hits generation.

[I]t's a wonderful, pantomime-like story of self-invention and continuous reinvention.
