Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

A Sunday Times bestseller

Packed with hard-won wisdoms and gentle revelations, this is Miranda's honest exploration of the lessons that have helped her.


Hello to you, I am with news. I have a new book: I Haven’t Been Entirely Honest With You. I know – what an intriguing title!

Basically, I have had an unexpectedly difficult decade – there have been surprising joys but also deep revelations and challenging lows. I shall be honest about those, because what I discovered in the difficult times were my, what I call, treasures. Treasures – practical tools, values, ways, answers researched from some great scientists, neuroscientists, therapists, sociologists (all the ‘ists’) out there – that have genuinely led to a sense of freedom, joy, peace and physical recovery I never would have thought possible. Life now, amazingly, with what I will share is – SUCH FUN! (Always important to quote your own catch phrases…)

If you fancy having a read, then I hope my story might help your story. After all, we are in this beautiful, mysterious, challenging life together. Rest assured there are funny stories along the way – we will have a laugh too, my dear reader chum. Oh, and I couldn’t possibly say if there is a love story in it . . . (There is – shush.) Exciting!

'A bombshell, moving, inspirational. Hart passes on the tips that helped her emerge from psychological as much as physical doldrums. No comedian, female or male, has been so taken to the nation’s bosom since Victoria Wood' Independent

'A raw and poignant account. Miranda is more of an everywoman than ever before' The Times

'Miranda's account of slowly letting her guard down and being vulnerable is sweet and moving, and proof that happiness is possible even in the most trying times' Guardian

Editorial Review

Finding freedom, joy, peace, and fun with Miranda Hart
It was a few years ago that I binge-watched several seasons of the long-running British TV series Call the Midwife, and Camilla “Chummy” Noakes (played my Miranda Hart) quickly became a character who felt like a friend. Hampered by acute shyness, Chummy was nonetheless an adept midwife (if I were to have a baby in a London tenement, I’d want her by my side). Similarly, I welcome the sage advice offered by Hart in this revealing, informative, and very funny memoir. It’s prescriptive in the most useful of ways. She shares the “treasures” she’s collected—practical tools learned from scientists, neuroscientists, therapists, and sociologists that have helped her to heal physically and emotionally. She’s done the work and is here to help us, her fans, navigate our own journeys to health. — Tricia F., Audible Editor

Sue Perb! Actual shivers (good ones)

Last year I became very sick and I am still struggling. Thank you for making me feel seen, for doing the research that I'm simply too tired to do, and for delivering your story and stance as only you can. You had me close to tears in parts and I thought "She won't make me cry..." Then the last 5 mins I was in floods of tears. Thanks again for seeing me.

Fantastic advice

As someone who has suffered from Long Covid fatigue, I could completely relate to so much in this book. I laughed and cried - I would highly recommend. Thank you for sharing your story Miranda x

Wonderful!

Miranda's story and how she found a wonderful new life through learning how to care for herself, is a must read. Her strategies should be taught in schools. Entertaining, educational, heart-warming, and of course, funny. Read it, or listen to Miranda describing her journey with the audiobook. Treat yourself to this book; it might even change your life for the better!

A journey in discovering her authentic self, which I knew would be right up my street.

I have never watched an episode of anything Miranda has been in, but I saw her on a chat show promoting this book and knew I wanted to read it. I myself and recovering from 30 years of chronic joint pains and embarking on a future of being more "Me." Miranda talks us through her journey, one many of us are familiar with in one way or another, leading us into seeing a way out. I've read many books by the "ists" as she calls them, and she quotes many of those I'm familiar with, and in that I know she is a part of my tribe.
