The fourth instalment of the UK’s most dysfunctional publication and all the favourite characters are back. Stella is trying to find her place in the world while Vincent is carrying a lot of guilt due to what had gone on before. Although still laugh out loud funny, there are elements to this story which are much darker than its predecessors. The members of the Stranger Times newspaper are a family, just a very dysfunctional one. I appreciate that CK McDonnell doesn’t spend too much time explaining the lore but instead just lets it be part of the entertaining narrative. Can’t wait for what’s to come next.
