21st-Century Yokel by Tom Cox
4.0
'Tis the first book I've read to which publication I've contributed via Unbound, even if in just a small way. I've listened to albums and viewed art I helped finance (again, usually in just a small way), but this is still a first. Gotta admit, it was a tiny bit heartwarming seeing one's name among the many many others at the end of the book.
Unlike Tom's cat books, 21st-Century Yokel is more thematically varied, basically a collection of essays. Some I found I pretty much hoovered up, some interested me less, but I happen to like Tom's style and quirks (sorry, can't think of a better word ATM), and so even those outside of my interests were a pleasure to read.
Just as with the preceding book, it was quite cool time travelling & re-living stuff I've read on Tom's blog & seen on his social media accounts, here in a slightly different form or contexts.
Well, that's it for now, I'm all caught up, but I'm looking forward to more from Tom!
