Aries Cat: I love BC but somehow could not get through the whole of this book. Some funny stories but others not so much.

R. Elliott: The stories are those from his stand up act over the years. So I have already heard most of them. Since I am a huge fan that is a real treat. I had many moments of laugh out loud.

Joanne Sylvia: Love and enjoy Billy's books, videos, most of his movies, basically love Billy Connolly. He makes me laugh, and when I might be feeling a little down, I put on one of the snippets I find on YouTube of his comedy, and he cheers me up immediately.

B. Lund: I love this guy. He's hilarious! But just reading his stories isn't that funny. If you want a collection of his work you might like it. Gave it 4 stars just because I like him.

Audrey Haylins: Have you ever laughed out loud at something you’re reading? And I don’t mean a snigger, or a giggle, or even a chuckle. I mean an explosive, snort of a laugh. A joyous, spontaneous release. The kind of laugh that makes everyone else around you smile, even though they have no idea what the joke is.

Well, this gem from the master raconteur Billy Connolly will have you cackling like a hyena on almost every page.

Nobody, and I mean nobody, tells stories like Billy Connolly. And this collection, curated from the thousands he’s told on stage, is the best of the best. Many of them you will have heard in one version or another. Here, they are retold almost as transcripts of a live performance, complete with all the weird and wonderful diversions and exclamations he’s famous for.

And, amazingly, the essence of Billy Connolly is so well contained in these pages, that you cannot help but hear his voice in your head as you read. No matter whether you’re Scottish or not, this is a book that demands to be read in a broad Glaswegian accent.

Billy’s genius is that he views life through an unfiltered lens. He talks about what he sees and asks the questions...
