The Amazing Book Is Not on Fire by Phil Lester, Daniel Howell

3.0

3/5: ‘The Amazing Book is Not on Fire’ is a Young Adult, Non-Fiction by Daniel Howell and Phillip Lester; YouTube Vloggers’ Dan Howell (previously, ‘Danisnotonfire’) and Phil Lester (‘AmazingPhil’) explore their extraordinary life together – from childhood, to present day. The novel is personal but, intertwines elements of comedy that brings laughter for all readers; each chapter pinpoints various information and/or events about ‘Dan and Phil’, providing continuous moments of entertainment. I listened to the novel via Audiobook, of which was narrated by the duo – unabridged - enhancing the down-to-earth nature of the pair. Growing up, these internet influencers had a significant impact on my teen-years; the pleasant read reintroduced and provided heart-warming memories of my time in the ‘Phandom’. Reminiscing about the connection between the fans and content creators. Though not a sophisticated read, the simplicity is enjoyable and highly-entertaining. Overall, a quick and unique read – I highly recommend the Audiobook too.
