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

Helpful insights

Just recovering from a time of viral fatigue this has been a wonderfully timely encouragement. I’ve appreciated the wisdom, science, personal experience, vulnerability and references from recognisable others. Thank you Miranda x

What Treasures

Having read all the authors that Miranda mentions in this book in a quest to heal my own Complex PTSD I was overcome by her interpretation and explanation of the various "treasures". It was not only a revelation but gave me more "Eureka" moments than at any time in my journey, intermingled with laughter and tears. Thank you Miranda you were already my hero.

Loved it,

Heartfelt thanks for this heartfelt and wise book , and please, please don’t write a workbook ! What I loved most was the prescriptive-less-ness of it along with so much humour and candour, of course Xx
