The authoritative account of what [Johnson] did with his time in power... explosive - Isabel Hardman, the i
Perhaps this overhyped book is the only memoir of which Johnson is capable. He is not going to change. Anyone wanting more about his time at the top will gain greater insight from a few pages of Anthony Seldon and Raymond Newell's Johnson at 10 than they will from Unleashed's more than 700 pages. Unleashed to do what? We never learn - and even he may not really know either. - Guardian review of Boris Johnson's Unleashed

The scale of disfunction is laid bare in Johnson at 10, a history which might alternatively be titled "How not to be Prime Minister" - Robert Shrimsley, Financial Times
