When StoryGraph asks "are the flaws of the main characters a main focus of the book" that's all the description you really need of this collection of comic strips.
This surprisingly charming group of absurd characters definitely do not have their shit together, aren't trying to achieve much and develop very little, but each short strip rings true to our lazier, most self-doubting and angry-at-the-world tendencies.
Humour is subjective, so if lines like - "Why do you always have an unlit cigarette in your mouth?" / "because I don't smoke" - or - "Bird, let go of your anger, look within and find your deeper feelings" / "I feel something... it's anger!" - get you chuckling, this is for you.
At over 200 pages this is a decent sized collection, but alas I can't help but binge them when they should be savoured one each day.
