David Mitchell
I ended up not reading this, I really disliked it BUT the book I did read isn't on GoodReads.
A Move Too Far by R Richardson - a children's book with a hint of Enid Blyton.

Very witty as you would expect, a bit out of date now though so need to look for something more recent from him!

I was in stitches at the audiobook introduction! Poor Henry VIII
it took me a long time to finish this one, bc it's a lot of moaning and not much funny, which is too bad bc generally I enjoy David Mitchell in his other incarnations. alas.

I like David Mitchell and his comedy, but as these are pieces culled from his Observer columns, the topics that interest you will be great chapters while the others will leave you cold. I was hoping for something new, especially with all the hype surrounding its publication.
I haven't actually finished it but I'm stopping reading cos I'd like to read something else

Gave up on this one very quickly. Mitchell's bland, conservative, upper-middle-class perspective on inequality (you should be glad you're not a medieval peasant), censorship (you can't say anything these days) and everything else irritated me.
Starts off very good but falls off (or the 'compilation of witty columns' format got old on me). Not arsed relistening to determine which one is more accurate.
