About this listen

Winner: Popular Non-Fiction Book of the Year – Specsavers National Book Awards 2012

Well hello to you dear audiobook browser. Now I have your attention it would be rude if I didn't tell you a little about my literary feast. So, here is the thing: Is it just me or does anyone else find that adulthood offers no refuge from the unexpected horrors, peculiar lack of physical coordination, and sometimes unexplained nudity that accompanied childhood and adolescence? Does everybody struggle with the hazards that accompany, say, sitting elegantly on a bar stool; using chopsticks; pretending to understand the bank crisis; pedicures - surely it's plain wrong for a stranger to fondle your feet? Or is it just me?

I am proud to say I have a wealth of awkward experiences - from school days to life as an office temp - and here I offer my 18-year-old self (and I hope you, too, dear listener) some much needed caution and guidance on how to navigate life's rocky path. Because frankly where is the manual? The much needed manual to life. Well, fret not, for this is my attempt at one and let's call it, because it's fun, a Miran-ual. I thank you.

Editor reviews

Winner of Popular Non-Fiction Book of the Year in the Specsavers National Book Awards 2012, Is It Just Me? is the delightful audiobook narrated and written by much-loved comedian Miranda Hart. Giving an entertaining recount of her life, Hart writes her warming, humorous life story in a dialogue between her 18 year old self and her current self, where she provides hearty advice and recites endearing memories of her past. This audio is amusing and enchanting for fans of this vivacious comedian. Available now from Audible.

Critic reviews

“That personality and voice belong to a uniquely cherished comedian” ( Daily Mail)
“This is pure, unadulterated, totally genius, Miranda. A cult (would religion be too weighty a word?) must surely follow, where can we get the T-shirt?” ( Red Online)
“I can't wait to get my hands on a copy of Miranda Hart's new book - we should all embrace our inner Miranda gene and learn to laugh at ourselves.” ( Daily Express )
“In her brilliantly funny book, TV's Miranda muses on some of the most challenging, baffling and 'hideola' aspects of life... all the anecdotes are told in her unique style, with regular interjections from her 18-year-old self. Such fun!” ( Star)
“Is Miranda Hart a National Treasure yet? If not, it can only be a year or two before she joins Stephen Fry and Alan Bennett in the trophy cabinet of the country's affections... That personality and voice belong to a uniquely cherished comedian, and the answer to that question in her title is actually, yes - it is just her. Because there's nobody like Miranda.” ( Daily Mail)
“Funny and charming and full of terrific comic ideas... Unlike most comedians, she can actually write... Every Christmas there is, at the very most, one celeb book that is genuinely worth buying and reading. Here is this year's. Accept no substitutes.” ( The Spectator )
“Miranda Hart will carry you along with the sheer force of her charm, bumbling cheer and charisma.” ( Sunday Express)

Wonderfully Entertaining

This was my first foray into audio books and I purchased it to listen to after an operation. It was fab - easy to dip in and out of and great for light entertainment when I was feeling rough. Miranda has a wonderful way of describing the world in a way we can all relate to and I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone who enjoys her show.

Absolute amazeballs

Miranda Hart's first foray into autobiography is an absolute joy. Not so much a life story, more a life guide with an older (though not THAT old) Miranda imparting pearls of wisdom to her 18 year-old self , based on lessons learned via hideous (and hysterical) faux pas, mix-ups, fashion disasters and a geneous helping of life's rich tapestry.

This is one book which works even better as an audiobook as Miranda plays both herself today and as a larky teenager to hilarious effect, explaining to her younger self how things don't quite work out to plan (no becoming prime minister or marrying Dollar's David van Day).

It is a genuinely laugh out loud book which perfectly captures the trials and tribulations of growing up (and of being grown up).

A national treasure

I have never watched Miranda, but bought this audiobook as it was recommended to me. I loved it. Made all the better that it was narrated by the author. I will definitely be watching Miranda on TV now.

This truly is such fun!

Absolutely brilliant. Sadly I found some of Miranda's stories far too relatable for comfort but by the end of the book I just didn't care! Her animated and honest narrative made me laugh in public. I hope she and Little M would be proud!

FLAPS!

This book is hilarious! There were at least 4 times I had to walk away from it for fear of dying from laughter, once in work which was hard to explain... If you like Miranda, listen to this book!..... FLAPS!!

Stress busting

I really enjoyed this audio book & will return to it again.
So easy to listen to & it always brought a smile to my face!
Not everybody would, I feel, be so enthralled by it. Guess it depends on "ones" sense of humour.
I discovered it when exhausted & even tired with life....wonderful, easy humour. THANK YOU.
