“This book is full of the memories and stories of the cast and crew and how we all found our way to each other, from everyone’s point of view. ... It’s pretty great.” —GREG DANIELS

Confusing to follow.

The stories are amazing and Brian does great, but, Brian doing great makes the rest too awkward. All of the voice readings on behalf of the other actors was hard to follow for me personally. I wasn’t always sure who was talking. Aside from some weren’t that great. No regrets though, the content was still worth.

Brilliant

This is a success story that changed lives around the world. Love the making of The Office.

Great Story

If you have listened to Brian's podcast you may want to skip this. It is a collection of those interviews read by other people, which can get a little confusing to listen to.

I am a huge office fan so I really just wanted to get all the information in a cohesive order. This book held its own in that aspect.

If you have never listened to The Office Deep Dive with Brian Baumgartner podcast you should!

loved it

Makes me want to watch The Office all over again.
Great listen. I highly recommend it

Great story, confusing narration

I’m a huge fan of The Office, so naturally this book intrigued me. I loved the story, but the narration was hard to follow. I’m sure if I had actually read the book instead of listening to it, I wouldn’t have had any question about who was saying what, but since different people were reading for the actors, it was hard to know who the person was that was speaking. Overall though, loved the story and loved hearing interesting facts about my favorite show!
