Making It Up As I Go Along
Making It Up As I Go Along | Marian Keyes
5 posts | 11 read | 6 to read
Welcome to the magnificent Making It Up as I Go Along - aka the World According to Marian KeyesTM - A bold, brilliant book bursting with Marian's hilarious and heartfelt observations on modern life, love and much, much else besides. Such as? you are determined to ask. Well, how about her guide to breaking up with your hairdresser? Or the warning she has for us all after a particularly traumatic fling with fake tan. There's the pure and bounteous joy of the nail varnish museum. Not to mention the very best lies to tell if you find yourself on an Arctic cruise. She has words of advice for those fast approaching fifty. And she's here to tell you the secret secret truth about writers - well, this one anyway. You'll be wincing in recognition and scratching your head in incredulity, but like Marian herself you won't be able to stop laughing at the sheer delightful absurdity that is modern life - because each and every one of us is clearly making it up as we go along.

A few years back, I remember seeing Marian Keyes on TV, and loved the way she would tell stories, she is an absolutely hilarious woman who is down to earth and has battled some demons in her life. I can't wait to start this collection of short stories/essays, hope I won't be crying with laughing standing on the pitch while on the school pick up!

Goodreads tells me that I started reading this one year ago! I have enjoyed dipping in and out of this book over the last year. As it is a series of short articles this makes it easy to do. Marian Keyes is always a joy to read and always brings a smile to my face.

I've been reading this since Christmas time but I finished it tonight on the train home. It's a collection of Marian Keyes' essay, articles and newsletter pieces so it's perfect for dipping in and out. I think Marian Keyes has got a real talent of writing as she speaks, her first person writing is very natural and I can genuinely hear her voice in my head when I'm reading. #mariankeyes @PenguinPublishing @penguinrandomhouse #booktube #bookbloggers

A cute collection of essays, articles, and blog posts Marian Keyes has written over the last few years. Nothing too exciting but if you like her work you will enjoy this.
