If you're a fan of this couple, or Megan Mullally or Nick Offerman independently, than you'll love this book. Written in a style that seems organic to the couple, and in a script-type format, their personalities shine through in a quick read packed with life and relationship advice and anecdotes. While completely charmed by this book, I think the best bet would be to listen to the audiobook, most likely narrated by the two.

Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally, although they seem an unlikely couple, often play hilariously mismatched couples on TV (Life i pieces, Parks and Rec) as well as separate roles in various shows, plays, etc. This is their story- too strange and funny to be fiction. For fans of comedy!

4.5 stars.
First and foremost, I am a fan of both Nick Offerman and Megan Mullaly. I always thought they were a funny couple but they worked well together. This book just seals the fact that they are a great couple. It's a book written by them and told mostly through a transcription of them discussing certain topics about their life, apart and together. It does take a some pages to get used to but then you feel like you're part of one long intense interview.
It's really apparent how much they love each other and that it's as if they were made for each other. It doesn't matter their age difference (over a decade) because they just work. It was a great insight to how each of them grew up, how they met, and how long it took them to get together. They do sometimes bounce around within the chapter because they get distracted (thus 4.5 stars and not 5) but it's really quite entertaining. They include pictures taken for the book as well as personal pictures from their childhood. I think my favorite was discovering their love of puzzles and them sharing pictures of puzzles they finished. They evolution of what they did in those pictures made me laugh. I enjoyed reading about their anecdotes and their history. I will say that you need to be fans of these two actors because they have a certain kind of humor that could be considered crass to a more conservative person. Then again, most people who read this book would be used to their sense of humor.
Well done and a joy to read.
