If you like the Hyperbole and a Half blog, you'll love this book, although you may be disappointed to see that many of the stories from the blog re-appear in this book (depression part 1 and 2, the god of cake, dogs don't understand moving, and I think one more). The new stories that appear here are great, although I thought it was awkward to end the book with the identity stories, which are a bit dark.
The entire book can be read in one sitting.

Allie is talented and really funny! check her blog http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com
This is my first "graphic novel"
I liked the stories from her childhood more than the rest
The only downside is that you can finish the whole book in an hour or two

This book includes a raw and real look at depression that also happens to be hilarious from start to finish.

I can really identify with the general sense of awkwardness and not wanting to do things that this book depicts.

I know for a fact that I cannot give this book justice but just know that it's very very funny, poignant even. I don't even know how Allie Brosh convinced publishers to make this book. And even though I cannot fully describe what Hyperbole and a Half is about, know that the Goose Story is my absolute favorite.

This was a fun and interesting read. Something a little different than what I normally pick up.

A book that deals with depression in a hilarious way. I didn't really know that could be done.
This was such a fun light hearted read in between lectures kind of book.
I didn't know about her blog until I read some of the reviews, will definitely follow it.
I would give it a higher rating except that I did not like how it was sort of scattered and I think a bit repetitive, also for me it sort of lost it's charm by the end.
But overall, an enjoyable read.
