Book Description

30 Jun 2011
The limited edition T-shirt is not available anymore.

In 2010’s brilliant AWKWARD SITUATIONS FOR MEN, Danny Wallace entertained us with wonderful bite-sized stories from his often embarrassing and bewildering everyday life as a man.

Well, now it’s 2011 and Danny is back – and he’s even more confused than ever!

A lot has happened to Danny Wallace in the past year. He has had a baby and has been hobnobbing with the powers that be in Hollywood. But that hasn't made him any less awkward.

Being more of a grown up brings its own baffling etiquette and expected social graces, and no-one has told Danny.

Join Danny once again on his very funny stumble through more Awkward Situations. It's not easy being a man!

4.0 out of 5 stars Cringeworthy situations 15 Aug 2011
By Bantam Dave TOP 1000 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
Despite the author telling us in his introduction that this book would probably be best enjoyed by dipping into it and reading a small section at a time, I ignored his advice and polished it off in a day. I don't think that my blatant insubordination spoilt my enjoyment of it though because I still found this to be a very entertaining book.

Like in his previous book Danny Wallace writes about the occasions when he found himself in an `awkward situation' during his everyday life. These are the sort of situations that happen to everybody and can happen anywhere; for Danny Wallace amongst the places they happened were at a cash machine, when queuing in a shop and whilst waiting for a lift. Clearly the reason that they are so funny is because of what Germans call schadenfreude - taking pleasure in the misfortune of others, particularly when you can easily imagine being in a similar situation yourself. What is hard to imagine though, is that they could happen quite so often as they seem to happen to Danny Wallace.

Because each awkward situation only usually takes three pages to recount this makes this book extremely readable, although be warned - some people may find that they have already read many of them before, in the pages of a well-known free weekly magazine.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!! 7 Aug 2011
By SjBs
Format:Paperback
A fantastic read. Just the one snag, the T shirt was a size "Large". Being a short arse, it looked ridiculous on me! I wish there was an option to choose which size you required.

2.0 out of 5 stars Lack Originality! 19 Aug 2011
Format:Paperback
After reading all of Danny's book, I must say that I was most disappointed with this latest effort. Although Danny states that it is a book to dip in on occasions I felt that the observations were desperate and it lacked the impact of the first book. I know these books are based on previous columns so felt that the book lacked the originality of some of his earlier attempts. I hope that Danny comes back with something that has more humour. I felt this was sold on him become a father but not many of these observations related to the new time in his life. The one plus was I have gained a new gym t-shirt! Sorry Danny but this is cashing in and being lazy-you can do better!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Really Funny 14 Jun 2013
By Wood
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
First of all, I do agree with the other reviews in which suggest to read the book in small stages. But, I feel sequels usually get slated as people expect too much. I do think this is a really funny book, just like all of Danny's previous work. It is 100% worth buying, it will keep you amused and I often related his situation to some of my own. Probably will be the same from others who have read it. Buy it, you will not be disappointed.

Great book, cool.

The review wants me to say more, but is it my fault that I can be brief.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, funny and truths worthy of bespoken 10 Jan 2013
By Yahya
Format:Kindle Edition
I got this book recommended by my 16 years old son. It is full of anecdotes which we all experience in our daily lives but accept them as routine. Danny has got a unique way of telling things. They certainly strike a cord with practical life and experience of some. Some of the anecdotes made me think and reflect while most of them bring on the smile. I will recommend this book to all who found themselves in an awkward situation and did not know what to do or say. You will find that you were not the only one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Danny Wallace book 30 Sep 2012
By Nicjnak
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
If, like me, you love Danny Wallace then you'll love this book. If you've not read anything by him before please get one of earlier books first. I think you need to know his style before getting into this book as it's not as strong as some of his previous work. I loved it though.
