I Can't Make This Up

Timeo Williams

If you're looking for a book that combines stand-up comedy with life lessons, this is the one.

New York Times bestselling author, superstar comedian, and Hollywood box office star Kevin Hart turns his immense talent to the written word by writing some words. Some of those words include: the, a, for, above, and even even. Put them together and you have a “hilarious but also heartfelt” (Elle) memoir on survival, success, and the importance of believing in yourself. The question you’re probably asking yourself right now is: What does Kevin Hart have that a book also has? According to the three people who have seen Kevin Hart and a book in the same room, the answer is clear: A book is compact. Kevin Hart is compact. A book has a spine that holds it together. Kevin Hart has a spine that holds him together. A book has a beginning. Kevin Hart’s life uniquely qualifies him to write this book by also having a beginning. It begins in North Philadelphia. He was born an accident, unwanted by his parents. His father was a drug addict who was in and out of jail. His brother was a crack dealer and petty thief. And his mother was overwhelmingly strict, beating him with belts, frying pans, and his own toys. The odds, in short, were stacked against our young hero. But Kevin Hart, like Ernest Hemingway, J.K. Rowling, and Chocolate Droppa before him, was able to defy the odds and turn it around. In his literary debut, he takes us on a journey through what his life was, what it is today, and how he’s overcome each challenge to become the man he is today. And that man happens to be the biggest comedian in the world, with tours that sell out football stadiums and films that have collectively grossed over $3.5 billion. He achieved this not just through hard work, determination, and talent. “Hart is an incredibly magnetic storyteller, on the page as he is onstage, and that’s what shines through [in this] genial, entertaining guide to a life in comedy” (Kirkus Reviews).

Totally hilarious and fascinating autobiography, seriously crazy life

I came into this book already a huge fan of Kevin Hart's stand up performances and general motivational activities he takes part in via social media. So I already had an idea of what to expect from the book however I was pleasantly surprised. When we hear about celebrities/performers and their latest accomplishments from the new or social media it's very easy to underestimate the effort or the work it took for them to get into the position they are in but through reading the book it gave a very rare glimpse into how hard it actually is and the sheer amount of perseverance required to "make" it. Kevin really opens up here and delivers a clear message into what's required to be successful, in addition, the book had me audibly laughing at some parts.

One of the best autobiographies I've read; I laughed, I cried, I cringed, I smiled and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute reading this book. There were some days I had to be told to put the book down and pay attention to something else. Definitely a must-read, Kevin will have you laughing your ass off for the entire book.

Raw truth, sometimes hard to listen to, but also sometimes very humorous. I love the life lessons, the tenacity and the hard work. This was excellent to listen to on Audible as read by Kevin Hart himself.

           I'm on Chapter 93 , and the book already gave me enough big life lessons, Kevin Hart is a stand-up comedian and An Actor but at the Same time he has worked in many fields,he worked hard in the field of swimming although he didn't got any awards rather than a Certificate of Participation and Full attendance,he is also good at basketball!
So far so good, the book gives you a profound memoir of struggles and hardships!
Well, ignore his writing skills!
