Adulthood Is a Myth by Sarah Andersen

Adulthood Is a Myth (Sarah's Scribbles, #1)

by Sarah Andersen

These casually drawn, perfectly on-point comics by the hugely popular young Brooklyn-based artist Sarah Andersen are for the rest of us. They document the wasting of entire beautiful weekends on the internet, the unbearable agony of holding hands on the street with a gorgeous guy, and dreaming all day of getting home and back into pajamas. In other words, the horrors and awkwardnesses of young modern life. Oh and they are totally not autobiographical. At all.
Adulthood Is a Myth presents many fan favorites plus dozens of all-new comics exclusive to this book. Like the work of fellow Millennial authors Allie Brosh, Grace Helbig, and Gemma Correll, Sarah's frankness on personal issues like body image, self-consciousness, introversion, relationships, and the frequency of bra-washing makes her comics highly relatable and deeply hilarious.

Really cute. I love Andersen's comics. I feel like I've seen most of these though (which might be due to people posting shit they shouldn't, TBH) so I'm glad I borrowed it from the library. Still brightened up my lunch, made me smile and laugh.
