Simon Cowell biography tops list of books left in hotel rooms
Study of X Factor creator turned up the most in survey of books found by Travelodge staff
Simon Cowell may be popular on television, but his life story is not so compelling – a Cowell biography tops the list of books most frequently left behind in hotel rooms. According to a survey of thousands of books found by staff at 452 Travelodges after guests had departed, Simon Cowell: The Unauthorised Biography, by Chas Newkey-Burden, turned up most. His Britain's Got Talent co-stars, Ant and Dec, fared little better. Their joint autobiography Ooh! What A Lovely Pair: Our Story was in second place. Third was Lib Dem business secretary Vince Cable's book on the world economic crisis.
