Klopp Actually

A hilarious diary of married life with the sensible, no-nonsense man of all our dreams: Jürgen Klopp, from critically-acclaimed comedian and Twitter sensation Laura Lexx.

Inspired by the viral tweet:''If I ever met Jürgen Klopp I''d say "omg if we have a baby we should call it Klipp" just so he''d raise an eyebrow at me and tell me I''m a moron and I''d be so naked by the time he''d finished doing that...''

In these uncertain times we all need a coping mechanism. And Laura Lexx has found the obvious one - imagining life married to the sensible, no-nonsense man of our dreams, Jürgen Klopp. She thinks maybe he has something to do with football? More importantly, he definitely knows how to efficiently stack a dishwasher and would tell you honestly if you were being unreasonable about a colleague.

From job interviews to furniture shopping in IKEA to making a birthday cake for their daughter, Klipp, Klopp Actuallyis a hilarious, warm and deeply silly diary of life with everyone''s favourite baseball-cap-wearing, bespectacled German football manager.

''I shiver, my skin breaking out into tiny goosebumps. "Are you cold?" He whispers, his lips brushing my ear, making the fine hairs ripple. "A little." I grin, pressing against his thigh. He runs a hand down the curve of my spine... "You should put a jumper on."''


''I''d LOVE to read a whole book of Laura''s funny, clever, sweet imagination . . . it made me laugh a huge amount!'' Marian Keyes

''Laura is so funny and I can''t wait to read this book and I hope it isn''t awkward when I *actually* marry Jürgen Klopp'' Sara Pascoe

''It''s rare to find brilliant new talent, rarer still to discover it on twitter but Laura''s thread on Klopp was my highlight of the year. I cannot wait to see what she does in book form. I shall devour it. A great shining comedic talent'' Emma Kennedy
