Interesting to get some backstory on these two, as I enjoy their work, particularly Nick's. Very funny in some sections, probably would get more out of it as an audio book

This was a fun listen by the couple that felt like a very long silly chat. It's cute how much Nick adores Megan and glad to hear from others who love to puzzle with audiobooks.

Megan Mullally and Nick Offerman are my favourite celebrity couple. I don't really have favourite celebrity couples so that's saying something. Their joint biography is made to be listened to. I'm not really sure how it would work in print, because it's very conversational and felt like there was ad-libbing going on.
You probably know Megan from Will and Grace, and Nick from Parks and Recreation. However in my mind, Megan has now morphed into Tammy (Ron's ex-wife in Parks) and after listening to this, that seems fitting. The Greatest Love Story Ever Told explains how they met and what they like about each other. I adore that they like to spend their free weekends doing jigsaw puzzles whilst listening to audiobooks.
A lot of it veers into autobiography territory, talking about career paths that I wasn't that interested in. Megan's sections particularly seemed like her biography rather than them talking about their relationship.
If you're wondering how the picture section works, they verbally describe the photos that were selected to go in the book. It's a fun way to make listeners feel like they are not missing out (and you can always flick through the book in a library or shop if you are still intrigued).
My favourite parts were their relationship and life advice segments, which are short and felt less like them just having a chat in a recording studio. If you like Nick and Megan you'll probably like this, their personalities shine through and it contains plenty of laughs.

The audiobook is very fun. I tried to read along with the digital copy for a bit, but the audiobook is slightly different, I think for the better.
It excels when they’re telling stories about their lives and relationship. I didn’t quite enjoy the few chapters/sections that tend towards self-help.
I do recommend looking up the puzzle pictures if you listen to the audiobook. They are very good.

This was fun to listen to as Megan and Nick "read" it. lots of bantering back and forth made it different from the print book.

This is one that must be done in audiobook format. This is a book that is meant for entertainment purposes only and not to be taken too seriously. The tone is Megan Mullally and Nick Offerman shooting the breeze about their relationship and how they met in an unserious way. They have good chemistry.
There was a chunk of the book where they describe photos that are in the physical book that seemed to drag on, could’ve done without that part.
