An exceptionally funny， warm， and honest book by and about the stand-up comedian Michael McIntyre。 Enjoyed every minute of it。

Michael McIntyre is on his usual form in this memoir！ I absolutely love his standup， so there is no surprise in my having immensely enjoyed this。 I really love the way he sees the humour in many things that to most people are just every-day occurences！ PS the fact that he kept going off on tangents while trying to read his own audiobook was brilliant！

I’m a massive Michael McIntyre fan。 I first found him on Facebook when a random videos popped up on my feed which meant that I then had to devour all the funny。So of course I need this book in my life。 I’ve read quite a few comedian biographies this year and I’ve found the best part is when the comedian narrates their own book。 It adds so much more humour and enjoyment to the story。 I really enjoy comedy that is based on true life events。 It makes it all the more amusing to me。 Add that to him b I’m a massive Michael McIntyre fan。 I first found him on Facebook when a random videos popped up on my feed which meant that I then had to devour all the funny。So of course I need this book in my life。 I’ve read quite a few comedian biographies this year and I’ve found the best part is when the comedian narrates their own book。 It adds so much more humour and enjoyment to the story。 I really enjoy comedy that is based on true life events。 It makes it all the more amusing to me。 Add that to him bringing in classic movie moments and mundane life tasks as a comparisons。 Plus Michael has the best voice changes to bring more animation to his story。 I absolutely loved this。 Genuinely had giggle fits and it was a complete binge read。 If you enjoy his comedy you’ll love this too。 。。。more

LOVE LOVE LOVE this book， couldn’t put it down。 Loved his honesty about his early money problems， his insecurities and the love for his wife and family shine through。The special relationship with Addison is so lovely and so sad and above all the humour。Fantastic read……。oh and if anybody does go to Bergen do take a brolly…why oh why I did the Funicular Railway for the view…。。in the mist and rain is beyond me！！！！！！！！ENJOY THE BOOK

Brilliant。 Just like him， the book was hilarious。 I listened to the audiobook and his narration had me in hysterics most of the time， with sad moments thrown in。 Really gives an insight in how comedians don't always have fun times all the time like it seems。 Brilliant。 Just like him， the book was hilarious。 I listened to the audiobook and his narration had me in hysterics most of the time， with sad moments thrown in。 Really gives an insight in how comedians don't always have fun times all the time like it seems。 。。。more

I was giggling so much in some sections of this。 Just what I needed at the moment。 The business meeting in Hong Kong had me in stitches！

Like most people in the country， I absolutely adore Michael McIntyre - I’m sure there are some people who don’t， but I haven’t met them and I don’t wish to。 Looking back at this work， I’m fairly sure I’ve watched everything he’s done， have all his DVDs and have read all his books （all 2 of them！） Not to sound like an old woman but I’m not a fan of comedians who swear and joke about crude things just to get laughs。 I prefer these kind of anecdotal jokes that Michael does because they’re easy to i Like most people in the country， I absolutely adore Michael McIntyre - I’m sure there are some people who don’t， but I haven’t met them and I don’t wish to。 Looking back at this work， I’m fairly sure I’ve watched everything he’s done， have all his DVDs and have read all his books （all 2 of them！） Not to sound like an old woman but I’m not a fan of comedians who swear and joke about crude things just to get laughs。 I prefer these kind of anecdotal jokes that Michael does because they’re easy to identify with。 They also bring back good memories。 Every time a new DVD was released， I would get it as a Christmas present and me and my late father would settle down and watch it before we’d even sat down for breakfast， crying with laughter within the first five minutes。What I like about Michael’s books， especially this one， is how honest he is。 Becoming a success in any profession， let alone something as difficult as showbiz， is full of highs and a lot of lows， and he doesn’t ignore these。 He is honest about how difficult his journey has been and how many knocks he has taken。 There is a lot of name dropping and…。boasting？ No， not boasting， that sounds negative and I don’t mean it like that。 There’s a lot of elaborating what he’s achieved and what that has bought him in terms of money and possessions。 And for most people that would really irk me， but for Michael， I’m really happy for him。 It’s clear this is what he’s always wanted and worked hard for， and I’m so glad he’s managed to make a success out of what he loves， and why shouldn’t you celebrate the gains that come with that？Overall， whilst it is fundamentally a memoir written by a comedian and made to be funny， it is also such a lovely story about overcoming hardships and triumphing in your most wanted dreams。 I read his first book in less than a day， and I’ve done the exact same thing with this one。 I eagerly await the third years to come。 。。。more

Brilliant book， all round book would of liked to of heard more about his extended family as they were heavily featured in his first book。 Still very touching to hear about Addison。
