What do you do when the doctor says you could die at any moment? Well...after you’ve made a cup of tea, of course.
Nathan James is young, successful and has the world at his feet. Unfortunately, he’s also about to die - which ruins things somewhat. And now he’s staring imminent death in the face, Nathan is having to rethink some of his life choices very hard.
This means embarking on a hectic journey of self-discovery that includes, amongst other things, losing his dignity to an inescapable bean bag, suffering screaming nightmares about a monstrous potato, and getting up close and very personal with a bipolar donkey.
All of which is fine, but then Nathan falls in love with a charming girl called Alison, which is a really stupid thing to do. Because how can you give your heart to someone when it might be about to stop?
From Nick Spalding, the bestselling author of Fat Chance, Bricking It and Mad Love, comes a comedy about dying - which is easy - and living, which is most certainly not.

Nathan James is dying. That's not really a subject to take lightly but in the hands of Spalding, that is exactly what happened. And it was perfection!!! I even liked the ending.
As well-written as the book is, the narrator put it over the top! He was just too good.
I love Nick Spalding!

What made the experience of listening to Checking Out the most enjoyable?
It was a serious subject about a young man who is diagnosed with a brain tumor but the book managed to make me laugh and not feel sad all the way through the bookWhat was one of the most memorable moments of Checking Out?
The chapter when his new girlfriend comes over and he drank an herbal concoction that did not agree with him.Have you listened to any of Simon Mattacks’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No I have not but I loved the accents and felt he did a great jobDid you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Yes it made me laugh and cry.Any additional comments?
I love books that make me laugh and forget my stressful job. A writer who can turn a story about a brain tumor into a book that made me laugh so hard is magic. He reminded me that my life isn't so bad and look for the humor. Laughter is the best medicineFunny, entertaing easy read
