It’s so relatable to the modern world. Very funny as well. Older kids would enjoy this. The drawings are so perfectly messy, but that makes the story better.

It was just okay. It read more like a series of short stories than a cohesive novel, and as with many short story collections, some were better than others. Some of the segments seemed more interwoven and emotionally significant while…

One of my favorites for fealing with the hard truths of mental illness and recovery through comics and laughter. Drawn poorly (On purpose!) it offers the feeling that "anyone can get through it" and anyone can express their journey to…
The download didn't work on Axis 360. I deleted the file and downloaded twice and it didn't work either times. I have had no issues with any other Axis 360 e-books.

What a weird and wonderful little story-meme book. Had me gasping with laughter a few times (the dog drawings in particular were strangely familiar). Easy, fast, and fun.

I found Hyperbole and a Half insightful, hilarious, and highly relatable for those with mental illness. It has a slice of life feel and delves into topics ranging from depression to the trials and tribulations of dog ownership to the all…

This is a hilarious, insightful, touching and deeply relatable exploration of just how weird life can be--especially when you're dealing with mental illness.
If you've ever procrastinated your way into a panic attack, dealt with the…

I will happily re-read this over and over. Everything Ally Brosh writes is both hilarious and REAL. You will find yourself (at least I did) laughing hysterically while also feeling validated in your experience of life. Also, her…

This highly amusing, sometimes laugh aloud hysterical graphic novel is a bit long but oh so funny. Enjoy it in chunks and return to read a new colored section as you have the chance. And any time that section deals with he author's dogs…

I really enjoyed this book and felt at times both tremendously sad and then the next minute was crying with hysterical laughter. How she explains depression really stuck with me, I do not have depression, but so many friends I know suffer…

This is a hilarious memoir in graphic novel form. While Brosh’s artistic technique may seem like a child’s doodling, her witty, offbeat, and self-deprecating tone delivers a level of humor I haven’t experienced in a graphic novel before. I…

Absolutely hilarious. As soon as I finished the book, I went to buy a copy on Amazon. I will pick this book up anytime I'm down as it is guaranteed to make me laugh!

This book provides a touching and witty approach to dealing with the oddities of life and shows that there’s a silver lining in every problem, or at least a laugh. It was a refreshing read that was very down to Earth and easy to relate to,…
