Laugh-out-loud hilarious book by an awesome man about brilliant people getting up to all sorts of insanely nice things. After reading this book I joined Danny to help him make the world a better place, one Random Act of Kindness at a time. I own two copies, one tattered and autographed by quite a lot of the lovely people I got to meet via to this truly lovely man, and one to lend to people that they might see the light and laughter that is Join Me!

I'd reccommend this book to anyone, though in particular to anyone feeling like they need some reassurance that there is some good left in the world. The existence of Danny's Barmy Karma Army tells me that there is hope for the human race, that heartlessness and soullessness are less widespread than may at first appear, and that there are people out there whose mission it is to spread smiles on other people's faces, just because.

Not a bad message, eh? Wittily written, too. ( )

I'd heard of this in passing before, but never seen it. Decided to Mooch it when it became available and I'm glad I did.

good intro to the book and his project as a whole -- you don't need to be a millionaire to do this, you just have to care. I like how it evolved over time, a very interesting sociological experiment. ( )

What an odd concept!
He goes to his grandfather's funeral in Europe, and finds his grandfather wanted to start a cooperative/commune in his small Swiss town, and did not get any responses. So he tries to fullfill this dream.
Danny writes into London Loot for people to join him -- for what, he is unsure.
Then, he gets 1,000 people to join this "club" that really has no mission.
Reminds me of a young Jonathan Ross.
Bright guy, good comedy writer. ( )

Danny Wallace decides to start a new project, our of boredom. He places a small ad in a newspaper, which says simply 'Join Me'. Much to Danny's surprise, more and more people do indeed join him. The only trouble is that nobody, including Danny himself, know exactly what it is that they are joining. As Danny strives to find a reason for getting all these people to join him, and find something for them to actually join him in, he finds himself going to foreign countries, appearing on foreign television and upsetting his long suffering girlfriend Hanne.

Most people know who Danny is, from his growing tv presenting appearances. However, at the time of this book, he was not as famous, and many people had no idea who he was. He is a jokey, matey narrator, and as daft and pointless as his journey sometimes seems, it's hard not to enjoy it! ( )

Funny read. Bit longwinded. In the end I really thought Danny would get back with his girlfriend! ( )
