No New Notifications

"No New Notifications will make you laugh, will make you cry but, most importantly, will make you think, 'Yep, that's me'. Tackling the everyday subjects we won't admit to being fascinated by - unrequited love, battles with our own insecurities and the thrill of the 'whoops' aisle in supermarkets - Bennyness strikes gold again with his second book. Following on from It's Ok To Be Disappointed, No New Notifications is another trip inside the life and mind of an everyman hero all of us who have ever looked across the checkouts at a girl in a Tesco uniform and secretly made plans to marry can look up to. More personal than his first collection of writings, Les Bennyness bares his soul to the reader in a way that is sometimes so cringingly uncomfortable, it makes you address your own insecurities. In equal parts hilarious and melancholic, No New Notifications is the kind of book that needs to grace any self-respecting bookshelf." - Andrew Greaves
