Whether it is a weird love for dogs or wondering if you really aren’t such a good person deep down. Most people will be able to find some small piece of themselves in Brosh. It includes some of the most relatable depictions of depression, dogs and childhood that I have ever read. It feels like being told a story, rather than reading one. The simple art and casual writing style compliment each other. She writes about depression in a way that is both very real and a touch comical. Brosh is hilarious, even when dealing with darker topics. Perhaps one of the only books that has ever made me laugh out loud even in public spaces. "On a fundamental level, I am someone who would throw sand at children." Perhaps I have underestimated my sneakiness! PicturesWordsStories about things that happened to meStories about things that happened to other people because of meEight billion dollars*Stories about dogsThe secret to eternal happiness* So I decided to just make a list of things that are in the book: I tried to write a long, third-person summary that would imply how great the book is and also sound vaguely authoritative-like maybe someone who isn’t me wrote it-but I soon discovered that I’m not sneaky enough to pull it off convincingly. Because I wrote it, I had to figure out what to put on the back cover to explain what it is. Published by Touchstone on October 29, 2013
