An honest, brave stream-of-consciousness memoir that is equal parts hilarious and heartbreaking. The first of Allie Brosh’s books that I’ve read, but definitely not the last.

great read to sit and dehumanized various experiences we all have in different formats.

This book came to me at a time in my life where I am at a devastating precipice of loss. Reading the theme that "no one knows whats going on" and "life is weird" was comforting, funny, and wildly entertaining.

Eh. Bit of a disappointment if I'm honest. Not bad, but not nearly as good as I remember hyperbole and a half

Bullet Review:
2020 sucked.
Like mega-sucked.
Like all that quarantine shit triggered my childhood and teenaged memories of being isolated and lonely and depressed and just dreaming of the day I was an adult and on my own and able to do things like go to the grocery store and be with people.
And then there was 2020. 2020 recreated 1992 - 2009 for me, and suddenly, I was a teenager again, doing homework in my sweats lying on my bed, wondering what friends were like, building LEGOs and Lincoln Log and Tinker Toy houses with my sibling and pondering what telescope I would buy when I had the disposable income.
2020 broke me, friends. Allie Brosh understands that.

I didn't love this quite as much as Hyperbole and a Half, but I also found H&AH in a time when I needed it, which makes me think I'm just a bit biased on that front. Overall, tons of great moments in here for laughter and deep, uncomfortable contemplation about life.

Another banger, which made me cry, laugh, and reflect on how to further implement my "goblin/unserious" mode this year.
The stick punishment has been placed in my back pocket as a good example for a silly vengeance.
