“EntertainerNeil Patrick Harris provides a singular charm in the narration of hismemoir—a partially real, partially fake life story, which imitates achildren’s adventure story. The book is written entirely in the second person,a novelty that quickly grows tiresome, but the performance is quintessentialHarris. He narrates in precisely the same manner that he hosted the TonyAwards. His life story is all here—from his early success on TV playing achild physician to his Broadway success—and is told with a bit too much candorat times. The narration, like the entertainer himself, is so likable that,despite some confusing story details, there’s much entertainment value. Severalcelebrity friends’ comments pepper the narration with a wink and a smile, allvoiced by a single additional voice, which is comical in itself.”

“There’s something about Neil Patrick Harris that strikes you. Whether he’s playing a teenage doctor on Doogie Howser, MD, a wild womanizer on How I Met Your Mother, or being his wickedly whimsical self as the Tony Award presenter, he displays a winning singularity. That uniqueness shines brightly in this fetching, sometimes far-fetched autobiography, which puts you in his shoes and challenges you to walk through his spontaneous, unconventional, and unpredictable life. Definitely worthy of the highest of fives.”

As a result, Harris’s Autobiography ends up being clever, heartfelt, smutty, hilarious, cheesier than a 10-ton block of gouda and maybe even a sort of profound meta-statement on the uselessness of any attempt at writing memoir at all.

A legen — wait for it — dary work of infotainment.

Very funny and very honest
— San Francisco Chronicle -
A fun little labyrinth of a journey… even with all its tricks and jokes, there is actual substance to be found here.…one of the most flat-out entertaining reads of 2014.

Neil Patrick Harris’ Choose Your Own Autobiography is one of the best celeb memoirs I’ve ever read.
— The Phoenix News -
The interesting thing about Harris’s autobiography, especially when compared to other celebrities who release memoirs at a time when their careers are still successful, is that he is actually quite candid about his past—sex, partying, or otherwise.

[Choose Your Own Autobiography] is silly, irreverent, and tells you a lot about Harris’ highly creative mind
