This is a collection of autobiographical comic essays. Through 18 short stories, it tells the author Ellie's self-analysis and the various troubles that happened to her since she was a child, such as stealing cakes, procrastination, being a good person, and suffering from depression.
The wild and grotesque painting style, childlike frank writing, and sufficient dose of truth make people laugh, move, and think about their own existence. A few seemingly simple strokes depict the complex emotions common to human nature. When you look at it, you will exclaim: "That's me!"
Reader comments
The painting style is very wild! The author tells various stories in his life. Childhood stories always reveal the unscrupulous growth of a child's mind. As for growth, the author is only seriously expressing her feelings and thoughts. She doesn't know the exact method, just like an ordinary friend around us. Reading this book, I have a light feeling. The interesting things are mixed with a touch of sadness, and the sad things are given a touch of comfort. In short, it is a book suitable for low moods. Let us see the complexity of human beings and our own diversity, let us understand ourselves bit by bit, and let us accept everything about ourselves.
Use self-analysis to describe the changes in your mind as you grow. Each chapter is an independent analysis. Although some parts may seem nonsensical or fanciful, you will definitely find resonance in certain texts.
Healing, sigh after reading, This is me, absurd and wild painting style, funny prose

Very cute book
Very interesting book
It's a book that I like as much as I read it.
The painting style of this book is wild and grotesque, the writing is frank and childish, and the author uses simple lines to depict complex emotions that made me feel for myself. And Ellie Brosh is brave enough to analyze herself and share her experiences, which is very rare. This book made me laugh and be moved, but also make me think about my own life. All in all, highly recommended!
It's very beautiful and vividly reproduces people's true feelings. It's an interesting book!
