Catch A Fire by Melanie Brown
It's all here: the council estate childhood, the formation of the Spice Girls, the early months of being groomed for stardom, the subsequent global domination, Geri's departure, the marriage - and acrimonious divorce - to Jimmy Gulzar, the solo career and the leap into TV presenting.

There is surely no one alive on the planet who has not heard of Melanie B, the in-your-face loudmouth who is one of the most popular members of one of the most popular bands of all time. Now, at last, she tells her own story - funny, frank and at times frightening, but never, never dull.
