Welcome to the magnificent Making It Up as I Go Along - aka the World According to Marian Keyes™ - A bold and brilliant collection of Marian's hilarious and often heartfelt observations on modern life, love and everything in between.

From a guide to breaking up with your hairdresser to entering the fifties-zone, the joys of her nail varnish museum to singing her way through insomnia, Marian will have you laughing with delight and gasping with recognition throughout - because at the end of the day, each and every one of us is clearly making it up as we go along.

I love listening to Marian Keys books Aoife's Irish accent is an added bonus. This book was more snippets of stories so it's like having a one way conversation with a humorous friend. You can put it down and pick it up without having to concentrate on a storyline. Very enjoyable.

Like listening to a very interesting friend

I’m a big fan of her Under the Duvet series and of her books but this one was not as rich and entertaining as previous. Still, kept me interested to the end, if only for the nice and light chatter in a delightful accent.

Not her best work but entertaining

Marian Keyes is funny, insightful, and disarmingly honest about her own inadequacies and struggles with mental health difficulties. She is a great commentator on people and life, and is laugh-out-loud funny! I could have heard a bit less about how awed she is by celebrities, but overall thoroughly recommended, particularly as an audiobook as the narrator brings it to life with her wonderful Irish accent.

Loved it!
