"Are you a special snowflake?

Do you enjoy networking to advance your career?

Is adulthood an exciting new challenge for which you feel fully prepared?

Ugh. Please go away. 

This book is for the rest of us. These comics document the wasting of entire beautiful weekends don't he internet, the unbearable agony of holding hands on the street with a gorgeous guy, dreaming all day of getting home and back in pajamas, and wondering when, exactly, this adulthood thing begins. In other words, the horrors and awkwardness of young modern life."

My Rating: 4.5/5

I enjoyed these comics after a long week and think they are perfect for a fun little read. My only issue is the commentary on weight but I understand that might be a specific problem. Fun and cute. Would recommend.

Thanks for reading,

These small books about relationships and comics are excellent. I love how relatable these stories are and how much they make me giggle and look over at my husband. I can't wait to see what the third book is like. I adore these comics.
