About this listen
The riveting, poignant and remarkably honest biography from Britain's biggest comedy star, Michael McIntyre, brought to you by Penguin.
His debut stand-up DVD, Live & Laughing, was the fastest selling of all time.
Now he hosts his own BAFTA nominated BBC1 series, Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow, and has won the British Comedy Award for Best Live Stand-up.
But how did he get there?
In his compelling autobiography, Michael McIntyre reveals all.
With deeply personal and captivating narration, Michael unveils his incredible journey: from his showbiz roots, to his appalling attempts to attract the opposite sex, to going from selling just one ticket at the Edinburgh Festival to half a million at his last tour.
Written and narrated by Michael himself, Life and Laughing is the hilarious performance and life story from one of the country's most loved comics.

Heart warming, not funny.
At first I was disappointed by this book because if you like Michael McIntyre then you are usually accustomed to laughing uncontrollably. This book is much more an autobiography than a comedy book. Michael's reading is much more sedate than his usual larger than life stage appearances. However if you accept that this is more of a life story book then it becomes more enjoyable. Michael's story (especially near the end) is heart-warming, and told in an amusing (if not laugh-out-loud) manner.

Fun and easy listen
Michael is himself reading the book, funny and humble and quick to laugh at himself. Very entertaining and I liked getting to know the person behind the comedian.

Brilliant. Did not disappoint.
You will get my “ did not disappoint” reference when you listen to the book. I am so pleased Michael narrated this himself as it just would not have been the same otherwise. Huge fan of his style of comedy and his humour shines through in this book. Well done Michael - keep the laughs coming.

Brilliant!
This audio book provided much laughs on my commute to and from work - the perfect way to start and my working day! Michael's impersonations are hilarious and he tells his story with much humility... a great listen - a must-listen for any fan. Thanks for the belly laughs Michael... I had more than a few people on my train ask what I was listening to!

Have you listened to any of Michael McIntyre’s other performances? How does this one compare?

Amusing
A very amusing account of his life but can prattle on a lot in parts.
