Man I love James Acaster's style of storytelling comedy and this book does not disappoint. Kinda drags in parts, but I enjoyed it! The book is essentially one long joke (think his Repertoire specials, but book-length), so judge for yourself whether or not that appeals to you.

A disappointed 2.5 stars. :(
I love James Acaster but this really missed the mark for me, it felt way too long and felt really lacklustre.

Boy did I not know what I was getting into. Despite having watched all of the interviews, especially where James emphasizes that a lot of the feedback was that people were upset that it wasn't an actual self-help book to quit social media! So even knowing that, I wasn't prepared for what it really was. I thought it would be James talking about his experience in a light, humorous way. But no. This was a batshit crazy book that's just as absurd as Acaster's sense of humour. And I guess that's the point.
Essentially, unless you're up for a very random ride, don't read this book.

This was entertaining, funny and a good listen.
I like that it's set up as a serious self help book but has hilariously insane ways to quit social media which you can't help but laugh out loud at.
I gave it three stars because I honestly don't know if it would've held my attention enough to finish it if I'd read as opposed to listening to it.
However James Acaster is hilarious as always and I did enjoy this book.
