Solutions and Other Problems
by Allie Brosh
Allie Brosh is such a talented weirdo. She'll make you laugh at loud one page and then hit you right in the feels in the next.
Overall I can say I'm still incredibly impressed by her unique style. The stories, the format and the drawings are mixed together to create her very own magic.
I did not like this volume as much as I liked Hyperbole and a Half. I think it's pretty clear the author has gone through deeply traumatic events. And while in the first one she'd go mix and match with her stories, spreading on paper insightful stories about her depression VS multiply hilarious stories about her childhood and her dogs, in this one I think she did not exactly lift this heaviness from most of her funny stories. You could steel feel how they were painful to her. I think this volume offered something a lot more raw and honest than her first work and made me gain and even better appreciation of her person. I hope we won't have to wait another 7 years for her next book, and I'll definitely never miss any of her books.
