I read Adam Kay's debut, This is Going to Hurt, earlier this year and I thought it was absolutely incredible. I'm so happy to say that the follow up didn't disappoint - my only criticism would be that the book simply wasn't long enough. Adam Kay's writing is among the funniest I've ever read and [...]
