Summary
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.

Loved it, but then it's MM ....why wouldn't I?
Loved it. Facts & humour presented as only Michael McIntyre can.... it's a positive message to anyone who has a dream, to just go out there and achieve it. I know luck also plays a part, but if it's supposed to be, it will be.

Funny and openly honest the whole way through.
I definitely recommend listening to the audible version, as Michael telling it himself had me in fits of laughter while driving or out walking. It’s a great example of persistence and self belief without the fluff!

Brilliant listen
Sorry you had to read it to me Michael but I have to say it was worth it. You cheered me up while driving up and down the M11 visiting my elderly parents who were ill. So thank you from the bottom of my heart. Off to download the next one. They are not out of the woods yet!
For everyone else: can't recommend enough. Laugh out loud moments teamed with touching episodes and read with Michael's famous enthusiasm. Just loved it.

A thoroughly enjoyable auidobook
Michael McIntyre comes across a little unenthusiastic about reading his own story in comparison to his big personality on stage. However the content of the book will at times make you genuinely laugh out loud. With a range of voices and impressions, he produces an entertaining listen from start to finish.

Almost 8 hours of Michael talking about Michael.
If you like Michael McIntyre, you'll probably love this book. It is Michael's life story narrated with his signature observational wit for the most part, intertwined with some heart breaking and heart warming accounts of some of the low and high points of his life. The best thing about this recording is that it is narrated by Michael himself, making it an especially engaging and touching listen.
