My Review (5 stars out of 5)
(Audiobook)
Comedian Jimmy Carr’s autobiography is part memoir, part self-help and gives an insight into his outlook, background and overall view on life, the universe and everything. Stuck in a boring day job he made the leap into comedy, gathering useful tips and advice along the way.
Jimmy Carr is one of those Marmite comedians – you either love him or hate him. I’ve been a fan of his for years though I didn’t expect this book to be quite as perceptive as it is. Tackling issues such as happiness, the meaning of life, and the problems of paying tax, he reveals himself as highly intelligent and insightful, as well as hilariously funny. He doesn’t simply dish up advice, but goes into great detail, explaining his reasoning, as well as emphasising that sometimes you just need to let things go and follow your dream.
A highly entertaining and insightful book.
