A lovely funny book about Brendan O’Carroll’s life up to the point where he begin’s the Mrs Brown’s Boys TV show. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Told with warmth, humour, a touch of mischievousness - and more than a few coincidences - this is the fascinating story of the one and only, Brendan O'Carroll. I live in the US and have watched his show hundreds of times over and over and found out he had books I jump right on finding them and found he had audio books that was even better because the man himself was reading them!

I love Mrs Browns boys and this book did not disappoint what a fascinating life he has had and it’s so good to learn more.Her interests have changed, but her love for her characters and her imaginary world she invented for them has not subsided.

I always wondered about the background of Brendon O'Caroll, especially as I have worked in the area of Finglas where he is from , and where Mrs Brown is based. She grew up in Southeast Texas and still considers Texas home, but has recently lived in Maine and Virginia. Give them a feckin' great time with the hilarious and remarkably honest autobiography from the star of Mrs Brown's Boys, Brendan O'CarrollA story of humour born of pain, success wrung from adversity and of the steely ambition beneath the affable exterior - Sunday Life__________ 'What?

In his own unique voice, Brendan O'Carroll strings together the threads of his life, a helter-skelter story tracing the helter-skelter journey of a scrawny kid from Finglas, Dublin to TV screens around the world . Throughout the tough moments, Brendan always had humour and a good story to tell alongside the ever-guiding inspiration of his own Mammy, a formidable figure who became Ireland's first female Labour MP.

One thing I love about the show is how much of his immediate family (partner/kids/old friends) are involved and that really comes through with the inner warmth and heart of the show. A wonderful story with great narrative, like sitting in a room having coffee with a brilliant and humble human who has gifted us with his humor. The youngest of ten children from a poor family in Dublin, Brendan left school at the mere age of 12 to begin what would become a long and varied working life.If you want a true to life good read that’s funny and warms your heart and makes you feel a range of emotions, this is your book! With more time on her hands after retirement and several close family members' deaths, she now has the luxury to immerse herself into her beloved writing hobby. Just like the show so brilliantly expresses, Brendan's first autobiography, the real story behind the man who became Mrs Brown, combines uplifting heart, warmth and hilarity. It feels very fresh to read something that feels like having a conversation with the author, Brendan O'Carroll has managed to do that perfectly here.
