Publisher's summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Hello to you, I am with news. I have a new book: I Haven’t Been Entirely Honest With You. I know – what an intriguing title!

Basically, I have had an unexpectedly difficult decade – there have been surprising joys but also deep revelations and challenging lows. I shall be honest about those, because what I discovered in the difficult times were my, what I call, treasures. Treasures – practical tools, values, ways, answers researched from some great scientists, neuroscientists, therapists, sociologists (all the ‘ists’) out there – that have genuinely led to a sense of freedom, joy, peace and physical recovery I never would have thought possible. Life now, amazingly, with what I will share is – SUCH FUN! (Always important to quote your own catch phrases…)

If you fancy having a listen, then I hope my story might help your story. After all, we are in this beautiful, mysterious, challenging life together. Rest assured there are funny stories along the way – we will have a laugh too, my dear chum. Oh, and I couldn’t possibly say if there is a love story in it . . . (There is – shush.) Exciting!

Editorial Review

Finding freedom, joy, peace, and fun with Miranda Hart
It was a few years ago that I binge-watched several seasons of the long-running British TV series Call the Midwife, and Camilla “Chummy” Noakes (played my Miranda Hart) quickly became a character who felt like a friend. Hampered by acute shyness, Chummy was nonetheless an adept midwife (if I were to have a baby in a London tenement, I’d want her by my side). Similarly, I welcome the sage advice offered by Hart in this revealing, informative, and very funny memoir. It’s prescriptive in the most useful of ways. She shares the “treasures” she’s collected—practical tools learned from scientists, neuroscientists, therapists, and sociologists that have helped her to heal physically and emotionally. She’s done the work and is here to help us, her fans, navigate our own journeys to health. — Tricia F., Audible Editor

Big surprise

This was not the lighthearted fun I was expecting. However I found it a very useful listen and just what I needed at this time. I even ordered one of the help books she suggested.

Lovely book

Miranda Hart finds humor in every situaltion, including havung chronic illness. She doesn't 'read' her book, she tells her story and connects with the listener on every page, calling us My Dear Listener Chum. I learned a lot from this book and laughed many times.

a work in progress

I really appreciate the vulnerability Miranda poured into this book. I love how she opened up and allowed us to participate in her last few years of processing her reality. I went into it knowing it wouldn't be as funny as her other writings but wasn't prepared for feeling so "seen" as I am in a battle of chronic symptoms myself. Welcome back to the public world, Miranda, and thank you for being willing to be vulnerable and real in the midst of your return to fame.

The carnage of unintentional pottery

A few days before I heard about this book, I was musing on how unfortunate it was that we hadn’t seen anything from Miranda for a while. I had no idea she had been laid low by a serious chronic health condition. In this book she tells us the story and walks through the things that helped her cope and recover. Like all self-help, it may or may not resonate with you (I admit it didn’t with me), but it’s Miranda, so you know the story is going to be entertaining along the way.

As for pottery, it’s just a moment in the book like many others where the images that she conjures up are distinctly Miranda and completely hilarious.

A must read for anyone with Chronic Illness

A big thanks to Miranda for putting all her fears, vulnerabilities, and feels into this book. Im also a survivor of chronic illness and there were so many suggestions that I want to implement in my life.

but will miramble on without getting to the point

I was excited to discover her new book, sorry to learn of her decades of suffering before diagnosis. But could not wait to be done as she prattled through millions quotes from famous self-help authors and decided we too needed fixing. Wish she'd just shared without fart and poo commentary along with her google quote log of a book. Wish I could unread.

(weird audio in la ate chapter, sounds like she's recording in a tin can--only instance of audio oddness)
