So, why am I talking about this book now? I can hear you ask, and the answer is simple, I couldn’t have been more wrong about Just One Damn Thing After Another and I’ve been slowly devouring the other novels, of which there are currently eleven, and short stories, of which there are a great many and I can’t be bothered counting, in the series ever since. I am not a big fan of most time travel stories as a rule, I don’t usually go in for lowbrow humor and absurd-ism, and in general, humor in written form for me is at best hit or miss, So from where I was Sitting, this book already had three strikes against it. Have you ever been persuaded to sit down with a book, or TV show, or movie, absolutely sure you weren’t going to enjoy it? Well, that’s where I was a few months ago, when I was talked into picking up Just One Damn Thing After Another. ![]() |
