Everyone You Hate Is Going to Die: And Other Comforting Thoughts on Family, Friends, Sex, Love, and More Things That Ruin Your Life full book Secondly, This book technically comes under self-help genre and honestly I am not a big fan of the genre and this is gonna be the only book I would read in this genre (unless Sloss or Gervais or Jeselnik wrote a book).

Everyone You Hate Is Going to Die - Penguin Random House

Okay so it's kinda baised review since I absolutely love Sloss but this book is worth your time I promise. He does remind us that the book only contains his opinions, but i think he still has a lot of work to do to express these without sounding condescending or all-knowing (I'm talking here of course about the parts where he is serious, not when he is obviously sarcastic). Again this comes down to not being a writer - I find the one-hour special the perfect format for him to get his message across with a perfect delivery, but this train-of-thought no ending essay format is too much for him, I find.

This is a laugh out loud funny book; Sloss’s sense of humor is brutal, and if you enjoy comedians who don’t shy away from darkness, you’ll find a lot to like here. (See for instance, the title, the cover. One of Sloss’s standup specials was about the death of his disabled sister, and another was about a toxic relationship that pushed him to consider suicide. Sloss’s claim to fame is that his comedy has inspired hundreds of couples to break up. Really!! So, y’know… dark!) Sloss is one of my favourite comedians of all times and I think he is really talented and insightful. My favourite thing about his comedy is that it always has a valuable message behind it, which blends extremely well with his really dark humour.

Everyone You Hate Is Going to Die: And Other Comforting

In the first book from one of this generation's hottest and boldest young comedians, Daniel Sloss presents a transgressive and hilarious analysis of all of our dysfunctional relationships, and attempts to point us in the vague direction of sanity. To paraphrase the Legend himself: If you’ve seen Daniel Sloss’s stand-up specials you’ll notice they fall under a very similar format. He tells some jokes and legally fulfills his obligations as a comedian, and then towards the end he does a sad 15 minute TED talk. He talks about serious subjects with a level of maturity only seen in Golden Retrievers.

Sometimes to the point of tears. And at situations described in such wildly inappropriate (to my Frail & Delicate Southern Flower ears) language!
