Critics Review

Brilliant. A joy and a delight - I laughed out loud! An absolute cracker – Zoe Ball
Hilarious, brutally honest and very entertaining. Bloody brilliant, like the woman herself * Heat *
She writes very well on the humiliations of poverty, without losing her sense of humour … It’s a riot from start to finish * Sunday Express *
Cooper is casual and caustic as she looks at the bright side and the darker underbelly of showbiz * The Times *
This book proves it’s absurd for anybody to think they know more about being funny than Daisy May Cooper. A riot from start to finish * Daily Mirror *
Hilarious. A riot from start to finish * Daily Express *
Perfect for anyone who loved This Country or wants to learn about how Cooper got her break in comedy * Funny Women *
Memoirs are often described as ‘honest’ but it’s rare that someone would write as honestly as Cooper * Funny Women *
The funniest book of the year * Sunday Express *
Hilarious * Sun *
