loved it!
love these guys. I'm glad I went for audio version of the book, because I'm a bit of a slow reader and this book is so well narrated.
I enjoyed listening to their story, the struggles and successes. They're like the guys next door who made it.

Inspiring story
I first came across Shea and Syd on Instagram and loved their style. I watched their Netflix show which was great, and had to get this audiobook!
It has been a fun and entertaining listen, and I’ve loved hearing the full story behind the business and the couple.
Their story is inspiring and it’s encouraged me to redesign my whole house.
I haven’t even finished listening yet, however I was compelled to write a review now, as I noticed that the reviews for the physical book are pretty bad. I think this is totally unfair! Everyone keeps complaining that the book has no pictures, but if you read the product description it says that it is an autobiography not a picture book!

Honest, heart warming and inspiring
Loved how honest and open you both are in this book. As a creative I could empathise with so many of the points raised. Loved hearing about your journey, loved the show and look forward to the next series. Wishing you both lots of love, luck and success in your future.

Fascinating account of their business growth
I love Shea and Syd's style and their Netflix show, so was very interested to hear their story from the beginning. They make it all seem so easy on the Netflix show, but this gives you an insight into the hard work, risk taking and dedication which has gone into getting to where they are now. They narrate it perfectly and are very honest and open about their initial self doubt (especially Shea), struggles with the business and sometimes even their relationship.
I only wish we could buy Studio McGee products in the UK!
