BLURB:  Swimsuit season is coming up! Better get beach-body ready! Work on those abs! Lift those butts!
...Um, or how about never mind to all that and just be a lump. Big Mushy Happy Lump!

Sarah Andersen's hugely popular, world-famous Sarah's Scribbles comics are for those of us who boast bookstore-ready bodies and Netflix-ready hair, who are always down for all-night reading-in-bed parties and extremely exclusive after-hour one-person music festivals. In addition to the most recent Sarah's Scribbles fan favorites and dozens of all-new comics, this volume contains illustrated personal essays on Sarah's real-life experiences with anxiety, career, relationships and other adulthood challenges that will remind readers of Allie Brosh's Hyperbole and a Half and Jenny Lawson's Let's Pretend This Never Happened. The same uniquely frank, real, yet humorous and uplifting tone that makes Sarah's Scribbles so relatable blooms beautifully in this new longer form.

I'm disappointed with this book. First of all, the summer thing of the blurb is false, there is only one strip about it, the same one widely distributed. And many others are repeteaded from the first delivery.

Some things are still so true, though.

Specially

The 'No Homo' strip seems out of context.

But mostly is repetitive.

Didn't work for me :/
