The #1 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

Customer Reviews
Revealing and important
It was so interesting listening to Miranda tell this story. I have Long Covid and have had a very similar journey over the last five years. The mind and body are not just linked, they are one thing. Like many people with fatigue illness, I have had to be the doctor and patient rolled into one.
What Miranda has shared is so important for us all to address- not the pill that cures, but personal reflection and change in order to manage our illness. The mind is not the cause of illness- but it can be part of management and recovery.
I also feel it is helpful that someone like Miranda with a public platform has used it to highlight the issues around fatigue conditions and the suffering and misunderstanding that we experience.
A great and important book.
Thank you Miranda Hart .
