Allie Brosh is most awesome.Īllie, You should come and play with us on Goodreads. You would have to be a turd to not love this book. I don't think I've seen a book that most of my friends agree on as much as this one.

Speaking of chilly, i will leave you with allie brosh's take on a dog in the snow: i don't know what all these buttons mean, but i am fairly confident that i have just joined the ranks of the modern world.

i am going to 'follow' a blog, as the kids say. are you ready? for those of you who know me and my allergy to 'doing new things' or even 'doing things like normal, modern people do' like owning a cellphone, this is going to blow your minds. but with this one, i am going to do the unprecedented. maybe once or twice, but then i would get distracted by other things and never follow through. i know i have said in other reviews of internet-sensations-turned-book that i was glad to learn of the blog or site or whatever through the book, but i never actually visited them after my revelation, even if i really enjoyed the book. There are other, non-dog-related treasures in particular the 'god of cake' story and the goose story, but i will leave you to discover those for yourself. If that's not a perfect trip into the mind of a dog, i don't know what is. these are among the best dog drawings ever. along with Let's Pretend This Never Happened: A Mostly True Memoir, this is a book that finally understands what it's going to take to make me laugh.įor example, every single time she drew a dog, i fell in love a little. this book made me indescribably happy, much more than the typical 'messy art autobiography' you find cluttering up the humor section. PAGE FOUR! i even took a picture of my laughter-tears as proof which i intended to use in this review, but then i figured the internet had enough pictures of me already, so that one will just be for me.īut i will tell you that page four was not the end of my laughter-response. not only did i LOL, i was crying with laughter by page four. but this book ripped out my funny bone and started tickling me with it.

don't get me wrong, i am not averse to the emotion humans call 'happiness.' sometimes i will find myself smiling at an amusing book.
