This is the first book i have read in years and i thought it was brilliant. Funny, at times cringing, but overall a worthwhile read for fans, even critics may find it insightful.

So glad i was purchased this for christmas just gone..great read loved it, so what you would expect from this talented guy!

Superb memoir! Russell Brand isn't for everyone but give him a chance, this is a memorable read for anyone!

Personally, I found the majority of the book to be hilarious and very witty- Brand has a great turn of phrase, and the book is written in basically the same way as he speaks.

However, despite large portions of the book's hilarity, the rest of it kind of fell on it's face- while Brand has always been self-agrandising, the book puts into perspective the seedier parts of his life and his behaviour does, on occasion, turn the reader's opinion from admiration to disgust- his behaviour as described in the book is obviously written with the intent to impress and shock, however, his opulent behaviour seems less the work of a liberal, progressive comedian (as he appears to wish to be percieved) and more the work of a five year old child having a temper tantrum. Clearly Brand desires attention, and this book and it's contents have gotten him that- however, the book left me feeling less that Brand was a funny, intelligent man, more of a child yelling "LOOK AT ME!" while destroying the front room.

In short- reading "My Booky Wook" left me at times enamoured and at times disgusted with Russell Brand- perhaps the desired result. While I still consider him to be a funny guy, and the book was, by and large, an enjoyable read, I've seriously reconsidered my opinions of him since reading it.

I found this book very hard to put down. It gives a very deep look into russels past and gives a hint as to why he is today. If critics who diss him understood half of the things in this book he went through, they would understand why he is like this.

This is a definate buy for any fan of Russell Brand. The included pictures section is a marvel to look through!

I loved this book, very easy to read, found Russell very funny, I could hear him relating the story in his own words and found it very enjoyable, It's an easy book to pick up and read bits from and leave for a while and pick up again

Well what can i say, out of all the autobiography's i have read this is the best.
Very very well written, like Russell himself is speaking you.
Whether you are a fan of Russell or not this is a must read!
BRILLIANT!!!

I couldn't put this day, Russell has a way of telling a tale that just makes you want to read. His anecdotes had me howling with laughter - and this meant being stared at on the bus. He should write more tales for us to enjoy. His relaxed and honest writing style makes this book worth every penny.

Got this book for Christmas, was very excited to get it at last, Informally written which was nice, however, I found after six or seven chapters i was still waiting for it to 'Pick Up' and get more interesting, found myself skim reaing a lot of pages as it got quite... dare i say it? Boring,
even as a die-hard Brand fan i found myself wanting to do something else instead, overall a satisfactory but forgettable autobiography.

What an amazing life this man has led! Brilliant book and a joy to read his life story in Russell's own words. How he has come through what he's come through and still has such a zest for life, I do not know...maybe that's what kept him going all along. If you are a fan of the man and his turn of phrase, I suggest you read this book. But beware, its not for the faint hearted! An honest, detailed portrayal of a fantastic man! I hope there's much more to come...
