I have to agree with anyone recommending this book. She takes a candid look at the levels of major depression, which was extremely relatable and a bit humorous to me. The dog stories had me giggling out load, just loved them!

So much to love in these pages! I have this book to thank for my new favorite swear: Lazy floor-banana motherfucker.

That was hilarious. The sad parts were funny too, and they opened another door to the famous blogger's life that I didn't know about.

Laugh out loud funny and exactly what I needed after a stream of serious books.

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
