First of all, lets get one thing clear. I do not like Miranda the television show. No offence to people who do like it, but I just find that it isn't funny; it's just silly and too 'trying hard to be funny' so much that I find it really annoying. Now don't get me wrong, I am the kind of person who laughs at everything; even the simplest of things and yet I just do not find anything funny in this show. However, for Christmas I was given the book 'Miranda Hart Is It Just Me' book by a friend. Whilst I am not a fan of Miranda, in the past I have found that even if I do not like a particular celebrity (Katie Price, Dannii Minouge etc), I have really enjoyed their ...  Read the complete review

I am a huge fan of Miranda in her series on BBC so when this book was published, it went straight on my wishlist. I was bought it for a 'treat' present and, boy, was I in for a treat! I have the hardback edition which can be bought for as little as £9 or a paperback version for around the £5 mark. (I also notice it is available on audio-download. This possibly would get away from my awful impression of her voice which I hear in my head when I read or is it just me that does that?) Anyway, on with the review! The whole book is written in the similar way to the television series in that Miranda directly talks to you. She also introduces her 18 year ...  Read the complete review

After being brought it for Christmas (though I have never really been a huge fan of the show, I watch it occasionally but that's about it!), a few months later I decided to give it a read and see what it was like. Here's my review on it! What's the book about? It's not what you would expect, as though it is an autobiography, it isn't a book about her life but just certain situations/topics she has picked out. There's not really much information in the book at all, it's mostly just her laughing at life, society and herself. Did I enjoy it? Yes and no. It is very funny at points, I even laughed out load a fair few times, but to ...  Read the complete review

After watching Miranda Hart's television series (and watching some of her other performances), I was very keen to read this book! Many people have described it as silly or childish, which of course is Miranda's charm! If you are interested in her comedy, or maybe want to get a taste of the Miranda-experience, then by all means try out this book. The book includes various chapters such as 'Music', 'Holidays', 'Dating', etc., with some hilarious anecdotes, and witty inputs from Miranda's younger self. Some chapters are better than others (for example, my favourite is probably 'Exercise'), and it is probably not a book where you will laugh out loud throughout. ...  Read the complete review

Dear Miranda, No it isn't just you. It isn't just you that feels the music scene these days has nothing on Jason & Kylie, and that the task of writing a CV and getting to the "hobbies" section causes a mass rethink on your life. It isnt just you that wishes someone would suggest a game of hopscotch on your office lunch break, or that hiding in the stationery cupboard for a few hours after a heavy night is one of the many perks of office life. It isn't just you that thinks exercise and diets are a waste of time and energy, and holidays are for sitting on a beach, or lounging by the pool, not risking a broken leg on a ski ...  Read the complete review
