Listened on Audiobook and Johns narrating definitely bumped it up a star

Really did not expect or want that middle section reflecting on the feelings after the 2016 election, although they were largely relatable.

John Hodgman has such a unique voice. He’s a very sincere goofball and I probably wouldn’t recognize him if I saw him in real life. And we’d both be sad about it.

Started off as just some personal life stories that weren’t all that entertaining nor were they all that funny. I smiled with mirth a few times through the first half of it. The book was heading for a solid two stars; just okay. Fortunately the book picked up in the second half, became much more insightful and funny, too. Climbing back and earning another star. Now the book never reached hilarious status, but it did get funny and because of some references to the first book, I was left wanting to read the first book since I started out of order. Pretty good and a nice start to the year.
