How To Be A Complete and Utter Blunt: Diary of a Reluctant Social Media

I think this is the shortest book I’ve ever read (I finished it within half an hour) but that doesn’t stop it from being entertaining. 

I have seen some of James Blunt’s tweets before, but having some of them compiled into a book is even more entertaining than reading them when I come across them. 

James has a dry and sarcastic sense of humour, and when it comes to being insulted by members of the public, he seems to know exactly what to say to both make it seem like he’s not bothered and get one over on the person tweeting. No one is safe, he even insults Piers Morgan when he’s having an argument with someone else. 

I actually think he could have included more tweets and made a longer book and it would have just got better and better. I love the self deprecating sense of humour that he has over his music, and the fact that he doesn’t take himself too seriously. The only thing that let this book down was how short it was, I think there could have been so many more tweets in it. 

Fingers crossed that James Blunt decides to make another compilation of his tweets in the future, I would definitely be buying that book after having read this one! I have also realised that I don’t actually follow James Blunt on Twitter, so I will have to rectify that mistake immediately so that I can be entertained by his tweets in real time and not have to wait for another book.

James Blunt can now say that he is not only known for his one song that everyone remembers (You’re Beautiful) but now also for his insults and sarcasm. It makes him so much better in my eyes and someone that I bow appreciate so much more.
