This month, we’re diving into Diary of a Somebody by Brian Bilston, a hilariously quirky blend of novel, poetry, and murder mystery. Written in a day-by-day journal format, the story follows the lovable, socially awkward Brian as he resolves to write a poem every single day to turn his uninspired life around. Packed with clever wordplay, relatable suburban angst, and over 150 funny poems about everything from office jargon to custard creams, it’s an inventive and heartwarming read that guarantees plenty of laughs for our next discussion!
