This is a book of essays again from Allie Brosh. I would say this book is significantly less humorous than her first book, but she is dealing with a lot of personal trauma in this book. Yes there are funny moments in this book, don't get me wrong. My favorite essay is Cat. That is not actually a shock if you know me, and honestly it perfectly described living with a cat, and cat's funny attachments with toys. But the chapter on the intense trauma Allie experienced with her health, the death of her sister, her divorce, etc were heartbreaking, but so beautifully written and honestly brilliantly illustrated. I really enjoyed this book, it was an interesting read.
