This book, like the incredible blog of the same name, is hysterically funny and also quite poignant. For anyone looking for a funny but also very accurate and easy-ish to understand description of depression, look no further than the two-part Depression chapters.

The writing is fast and funny, honest and pleasant to read. The art is crude but oddly charming, and it conveys a lot more in its simple lines than anyone would expect.
