 Laugh out loud funny July 18, 2008
A friend gave me this book to cheer me up. I was dubious. I'm not always a fan of 'funny' books, as humour can be such a personal thing. Thankfully she was right and I was wrong. This really did make me laugh out loud.
Danny tries to stop being so negative by listening to a man on a bus who tells him that he should say 'yes' more. As to be expected from a man who co-wrote and helped in the mayhem that was 'Are You Dave Gorman', Danny takes it to extremes and decides to say yes to absolutely everything in his life.
My favourite part of the whole book is the episode where he ends up in Amsterdam with a picture of him and his imaginary dog. I won't tell you any more because it will spoil the surprise, so now you have to go and read it.
BRILLIANT!! July 2, 2008
honestly one of my favourite books of all time. Really changed my attitude to be even more positive, and do things that you may not particularly feel like doing, cos it will usually be brilliant. inspiring, and all round brilliant. can't recommend it enough.
 Could only manage twenty pages.... June 2, 2008

because I was utterly bored and frustrated by this book. It is so self indulgent as not to be believed. I just didn't find it funny. Maybe cos I am not a bloke (it's blokey all right). How he could fill a whole book up with this scenario beggars belief. I was sick of me me me me me me and me, not doing much, getting paid lots for it. Yawn.
 Davina McCall likes it !!! So should you ? May 30, 2008
An enjoyable bit of light reading. I nearly threw it away a couple of times in the middle as the plot became a little weak and meandering and I felt I should be reading something a little more meaningful. Then I remembered I was on holiday and was supposed to be having fun not following the path to enlightenment ! A good book for what it is ie.light entertainment. The only reason I didn't give it 4 and a half stars (besides the obvious amazon limitation) was because of the Davina McCall quote on the front. If I'd have seen her name on the book I wouldn't have bought it !!
So glad I said YES to Danny Wallace! May 11, 2008
Oh my god, I have never laughed out loud so much reading a book. I kept getting funny looks on the plane to Spain last week! I got home on Friday and straight away ordered Join Me and Random Acts of Kindness and I cannot wait to read more about Danny's adventures!
