Very Cheap, Very Good

Customer Rating:

I guess what struck me first about this book is the weight and feel of the pages. It feels like an expensive book built to last. Fantastic! It's Karl Pilkington's second book and, although I haven't read the first, I can say that this one is absolute gold. Pilkington's blinkered view on life makes for entertaining reading and his antics prove true to how you know him from podcast/radio shows. There are a few extracts from the diary that have already been read on the podcast but they are very few in number and still pack a punch the second time round. It's also a good light read and I'm trying to avoid reading it all at once. If I had to gripe, I would have to say about the slang scattered around in this book ("cos", "me mam") but because it's Karl, it's OK. For those that haven't listened to the podcast, I should warn that this book won't make sense in the slightest and you'll be confused as to it's existence. Listen to the podcasts, understand Karl's humour and then read the book.

The man's a genius... and he doesn't know it!

Customer Rating:

I can't believe this has got any negative reviews. I bought it to take on holiday and it's the perfect holiday read. Had me in stitches, going "Oh my God - that's happened to me!" Karl is a genius - yet he rather modestly doesn't seem to be aware of it. It's a great book to dip in and out of, but I read it cover to cover in a day... just wish it had been longer! Will leave it on my bookshelf and dust it off to re-read the next time I jet off.

Listen, the NME podcast wasn't enough. No monkey news, no diary> Karl needs to commit to something regular. Sort it out Karl, dancing around in a hairy outfit on a grown up show is all well and good but its not a full use of your tallents. Sort it out!

One of the funniest books i've ever read

Customer Rating:

This book is brilliant, karl is basically the worst philosipher on the planet earth, and his head is similarily shaped to the planet earth aswell. its often his digressions in the book which are the funniest, he can't seem to stay on one topic for too long before he's off on a hilarious rant. If you've never even heard of him you should definately give this book a read. and do some more podcasts you bald manc git!
