James Acaster

Staff Picks: It has all the dry wit that you would expect of something by James Acaster, but it also introduced me to some truly stunning albums that I would never have found otherwise. I want him to release a book like this for every year in music! Picked by Leanne

This novel tells the story of James who has lived with his two beastly aunts ever since his parents were eaten up outside London Zoo. Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker are really horrible people and make poor James's life a misery.
