Solutions and Other Problems by Allie Brosh
3.0
(3.5) Like in her first book, [b:Hyperbole and a Half: Unfortunate Situations, Flawed Coping Mechanisms, Mayhem, and Other Things That Happened|17571564|Hyperbole and a Half Unfortunate Situations, Flawed Coping Mechanisms, Mayhem, and Other Things That Happened|Allie Brosh|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1409522492l/17571564._SY75_.jpg|24510592], Brosh does amazingly evocative and hilarious things with very simple illustrations--my favorite being animals and herself.
This is a hefty follow-up and while there are many funny and poignant parts, she didn't dive into the biggest events of the past seven years--her sister dying (suicide?) and her divorce--and it felt really disingenuous because she is so honest and forthcoming in every other respect. Still, I adored the chapters and stories about dogs and her new cat.
