Book Review- Is It Just Me

So it’s Tuesday, and since I have recently finished the biography ‘Is It Just Me’ by Miranda Hart, I thought I would do a review on the book and whether it’s a good read. So here we go chums...

Miranda Hart is an English comedian and actress, she has her own sitcom and as she reveals in her book, many of the incidents that occur in the show have happened in her own personal life. I feel that this makes it more relatable  to the reader.  

The biography follows Hart telling her 18 year old self about her life at the moment and trying to let her down gently, as many of the things ‘Little Miranda’ dreams of doing and becoming, ‘Big Miranda’ now finds these ridiculous. Hart also refers to you as her ‘My Dear Reader Chum’ which makes you feel as though you are living through her life and her teenage self.

Each chapter is named different events such as ‘Dating’ and ‘Work.’ This explains certain situations in her life and also having to break it to teenage Miranda that her dreams of being a politician, is very far-fetched and her hidden dream of being a comedian is much more realistic and of course, has come true!

This is such a great read and gives you a different side of Hart and some things you don’t expect and other things you definitely do.  I would recommend this book to ages 15+, and think that is would appeal more to women than men.


I would love to know if you have read this book and what you opinion of it is. You can tweet me or leave a comment!
