This is a wonderful antidote to those "little book of wisdom" type affairs. It's not that it's a miserable version of such books -- far from it. Rather it is a collection of carefully crafted one-liners and observations, clever and heartfelt enough to actually make you think, and funny enough to make you laugh out loud at most of them. They are, in essence, the best of Simon Munnery's stand-up gags from the last 20 years or so. Well worth a fiver.

This makes a great stocking filler. There is the chance that the person you bought it for will think you are smart, and its easy to read yourself before passing it on. The paper is fairly sturdy, and I am fairly certain my brother won't notice that I've already leafed through it. Why I want my brother to think I am smart is anybody's guess, and probably best not dwelled on.
Very funny.
Very funny.

A laugh on every page, most every page contains gems of wisdom that make you wonder why you've never heard them before. Sparklingly original, witty, laugh out loud funny. It's not a novel, but a collection of small comedic gems. So don't expect to read this for hours, rather expect to open at a random page and laugh. I recently saw Simon supporting Stewart Lee and it was so funny it reminded me to revisit this book and write this review. If you have his DVD then get this too.

A witty but tiny book. Only a few pages, with one comment per page. Good, but nowhere near worth the price.

Charming, erudite, insightful, but most of all, funny!
This is a delightful little book. It's only 72 pages long, and many of these pages have only one or two sentences on them. Read more

Not good value.
Flimsy paperback book - hardly even a book; more of a booklet. It contains a load of trite one-liners that are barely smile inducing. Calling them "funny" would be overselling it. Read more

Dry, witty, at times acerbic, always with a stab of truth and oddly sweet and lovable; rather like the man himself. Read more
