This is a self-help book like no other, as James Acaster is not just helping you, he is helping yourself. In 2019, James took a drastic step by quitting all forms of social media, including covering his phone in tar and driving it to a lock-up in Rhyl before setting up home in a castle he had built himself called Castle Anti-Net. However, when the withdrawal symptoms hit him, he realized that in order to stay clean, he would have to replace everything social media had given him with three-dimensional, real-life activities.

With the help of a mysterious, wealthy benefactor named Clancy Dellahue, and an ever-growing gang of misfits (aka the Tangfastic Crew), James found innovative ways to replace his online friends. He joined the scouts, took up climbing ropes, zip lines, and even wore a fake moustache to spy on his exes. He also engaged in anonymous bullying of strangers, viewing photos of everyone's dogs, getting public figures fired, arguing with everyone about everything, and much more.

James' life is truly amazing, and he believes that yours could be too if you buy JAMES ACASTER'S GUIDE TO QUITTING SOCIAL MEDIA, BEING THE BEST YOU YOU CAN BE AND SAVING YOURSELF FROM LONELINESS VOL. 1. This book offers a unique and unconventional approach to self-help, providing readers with practical tips and strategies to overcome social media addiction and lead a fulfilling life.
