The book is very funny and a great casual read. I loved the footnotes and writing which are informative and helps to show his personality and insight of his thoughts. We get to read more about his personal life and the heartbreaking challenges that he has faced throughout his life.

Hilarious and genuinely heartbreaking all at once. Alot more personal than Kay’s other books which was a welcomed insight into publishing’s favourite ex-doctor. 

Do check content warnings though. 

It wasn’t quite a full 5 stars for me as a little of the humour was on the line for me personally but Kay always pulls it back with hard hitting truths about UK & US healthcare, life and loss.

(P.S I’ve listened to all his books narrated by him and would highly recommend. Although I can't shake Will from Inbetweeners out of my head)

An absolute rocker! 5 stars I ugly laughed, almost cried, rolled my eyes and had a great time. This book was definitely free therapy and would 100% recommend to anyone who isn't squeamish or sensitive. Kay has a great autobiographical style, and as well as drawing me in with the humour, I feel like he has educated, counselled , and given me a voice.
