May I Have Your Attention Please?

James does not disappoint in this WONDERFUL piece of work. He writes from his heart narrating his story with real warmth and whilst listening I felt he was reading just to me. I listened avidly to his exploits at school, his early adventures securing parts in the plays or films. It was hysterically funny in places and brought tears to my eyes in others. James takes time to describe the characters he has encountered throughout the book he acknowledges all those who have made an impression upon him. I learned a lot about the ways of a thespian and I discovered a side to his personality I had not previously seen. He is not just a very clever very funny man able to hold an audience in the palm of his hand, he is humble , a serious family man warm and loveable. He is keen to please, rather like a labrador puppy who keeps coming back for more opportunities to play. Well done Mr Corden , you certainly had my attention for the whole book. This is an excellent book, buy the download you will not be disapointed.

Thoroughly enjoyed the book. James takes you from his very normal childhood,through to his metoric rise to fame, warts and all. For somebody that missarebly failed at school I would give the book an A Star, well done Mr. Lavine.

A really heart warming account of James Corden's life to date.

I found his account of his darkest times most touching and was something everyone can relate to.

On the whole plenty of laughs and nice to know he's human like the rest of us.

I like the G&S stuff, as we all do, but I wanted to know more about James the man and this book didn't let me down. The book left me realising he worked really hard to achive his success and learned some valuable lessons along the way. James reads with humility and occasional humor, but this is not a funny book. There are some funny anecdotes, but this book is a real lesson in what can happen if you start believing your own hype. Great listen

I loved this book from start to finish. I had only recently watched Gavin and Stacey but as soon as I had, I wanted to know more about James Corden. James does a great job of narrating and he really describes every event in his life in a way that makes you feel that you are part of it.

When it finished I felt a bit lost, missing my daily fix of James Corden humour.

I would definatley recomend to anyone, not only to know about his rise to fame but also for how hilarious it is , all the way through.

A very funny read James Corden tells his story so far in his own humorous way but I found the book a bit of a struggle towards the end and a bit boring

We listened to this audio book as a family on a long journey and we all enjoyed it to the point I was only allowed to listen to it whilst we were together in the car! It does have a few rude bits to it though so there were a few occasions where we had to skip a few minutes or insist our youngest teenager put his headphones on! As with the Michael McIntyre autobiography the book talks about his early career struggles and shows how hard it is to be a successful on TV. The author's narration is particularly funny making listening to the audio book more enjoyable than reading the book.

This was my first experience of audio books as an adult! It was laugh out loud funny, made more so by James Corden narrating it, I think it may have been lost in translation should I have read this myself! I listened to it in the gym and nearly came off the back of the treadmill whilst laughing!!!

JC is very honest, open and funny. If you are a fan this is a must listen!

A really Honest story and review of Corden's life. Full of funny stories (although at times I did feel he would irritate me if I had known him in his younger days!) I did watch the G&S drama which probably adds to the interest level but this is a naturally interesting life story.
