Three days after its release, it had already sold 26,436 copies, according to book sales monitor Nielsen BookScan, ranking it in first place in this week’s hardback nonfiction chart.

According to Amazon, in the book “the guys go in hard on their living habits, their football ability, and their dodgy clobber, while also talking FIFA, Vegas, and superheroes. They’ll also give you their grand house tour, letting you in on a few secrets, before showing you their hall of fame, as well as revealing some of their greatest shames.”
The book includes the group’s “ultimate guide to YouTube”, their memories of recording their favourite videos, and a typical day in the life of the Sidemen.
Sidemen: The Book is available to purchase on Amazon. The audiobook version is available for download on Audible.
