The Wheel is Spinning but the Hamster is Dead: A Journey Around the World in Idioms, Proverbs and General Nonsense by Adam Sharp

funny informative lighthearted medium-paced

4.25

I giggled throughout this book, it was pretty much everything I expected it to be. Perfect if you like languages and silly words, even more so if you like rude words. 
My only slight quibble with it was that once the author put in a joke example, I was then questioning everything. Some of them just seem too funny to be real, and although I could see more that were clearly just jokes, I felt like I couldn't trust the others.
