Jo Brand’s new book, Born Lippy

[TanteRose]

Just downloaded this and started reading it on the bus to work (I’m in forrin parts and it’s morning here)

Born Lippy

“it makes me sound like a raddled old misanthropist, which is, coincidentally, my Mumsnet user name.”

I love her

only read a few pages of the book, but I don't think its going to disappoint.

she is a star

I love her too. I wrote to her last year and she sent me a lovely card back. I was, incidentally, having a hard time at the time and it meant so much that she took the trouble to write back.

Jo Brand is on here?

Love Jo Brand.

Jo has always struck me as a woman I'd like to know IRL. Not much opportunity to read these days unfortunately, but I'll put this on the wish list. Thanks Tante.

She’s wonderful and so interesting to listen to.

Wish I was her mate.

Ooh thanks for the reminder. I read her other book and found it fascinating, relatable and at points hilarious so will put this on the xmas list. Someone should give her a Dame hood if they haven't already - lovely woman.

Great title I love JB.

She is fab, I'd love her as a friend. That's definitely on my Christmas list.

Should have put the whole title

Born Lippy - How to Do Female

It’s a cracking read - she writes so well

I'm going to buy a copy. I could do with a laugh atm.

I adore Jo Brand. Thoroughly sound person.

In a comedy world mainly filled with smug middle class men.

just putting this here
