5.0
Absolutely just devoured this about eight hours, and my sister who has never read Allie Brosh before immediately called dibs. The chapters on depression from Hyperbole and a Half are still deeply moving and iconic and express some really difficult concepts with ease, but the breadth of expression of emotions and a sense of time and place in this is astonishing. This book contains a long, sweet, sad montage of Allie's relationship with her late sister, and then also a series of snapshots about her sister's childhood torture competition with her best friend. The problems of people being complex and inexplicable little weirdos are good problems, actually.
