Adulthood is a Myth: A Sarah's Scribbles Collection (Volume 1)

The hilarious debut Sarah's Scribbles collection from Sarah Andersen, winner of three consecutive Goodreads Choice Awards for Graphic Novels and Comics

These casually drawn, perfectly on-point comics by the hugely popular young 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. 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, showcasing how she became one of the most influential voices in web cartoonists.

I really enjoyed this. I found it very humorous. I might have even found many illustrated panels relatable. Especially the "Pajamas"! 🥰 I really love my PJ's, too

Charming, light, humorous, real, relatable. I keep it on my desk and bring it home occasionally for my teen. This book makes my heart smile.

I'm not sure exactly what makes Sarah Andersen so funny and so relatable - is it her take on undergarments? Being a bookworm? Being an introvert? Shampoo vs Conditioner? Periods? Not giving a crap about giving a crap about shaved legs? Gift giving/receiving? I don't know, but I laughed a LOT while reading this and devoured the whole thing while walking in circles around my kitchen. Too many favorites to post, but this one was one I've griped about often:
