Having loved This Is Going to Hurt, when I noticed that Adam Kay's novella, Twas the Nightshift Before Christmas was available in audio format, I didn't think twice before picking it up.
This one is mostly a collection of anecdotes from the time Kay was a practising doctor. He talks about the time he had to be on call a few Christmases in a row before he left the profession. And as expected from a doctor's job, he wasn't spreading Christmas cheer to all his patients as not everyone's life is full of joy during Christmas.
I reckon this was a perfect December read. In true Adam Kay fashion, it was witty and heartfelt. I only wish it was longer with more details. Although it doesn't compare to This Is Going to Hurt, I enjoyed it nonetheless.
