James Acaster

I'm a fan of Acaster. Love his brand of comedy, his wit, and his quirkiness. And boy, does he bring that all to this book. It's pretty funny if you enjoy his comedy. But I did get pretty weary about halfway through. It just got quirkier and quirkier. A little too long for this brand of comedy, in my opinion.

Oh my God! To be a fly on the walls and see these scrapes in real life...

I enjoy Acaster's comedy, and there is a fair bit of that in here, but this is also the tale of two pretty rough years for him, at least in everything other than music. This is his story of the great music he found in 2016, or which was released in 2016 and he found later (leading him to declare that the best music year ever). I certainly learned about a lot of interesting music I would otherwise have missed entirely!
