Comedian Romesh Ranganathan has signed a book deal for a new title about bluffing your way through adulthood.

As Good As It Gets: Life Lessons From A Reluctant Adult is a follow-up to his 2018  memoir, Straight Outta Crawley.

Publishers Transworld say the book is informed by the his “personal failings and  the many small rebellions he has staged against the unreasonable social expectations we all face.”

“Watching his friends descend into middle age, his waistline thicken and his finances dwindle to fund his family’s middle-class aspirations, Romesh reflects on the demands of daily life and the challenges of adulting in the modern world,” adds the blurb.

“As he reluctantly concludes that he is indeed a grown man, Rom wrestles with the greater questions that threaten his being: Could I save my family in a crisis? Do I possess the skills to assemble flatpack furniture? Am I too old for streetwear? Is it alright to parent my kids through the medium of Fortnite? Is celibacy the secret to a passionate marriage?”

As Good As It Gets: Life Lessons From A Reluctant Adult will be published on 15th October.
