About this ebook
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.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Amazing and hilarious!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book contains a collection of comic sketches by the author. There is not a story in terms of a beginning, middle, and end; however, there is a throughline loosely connecting the vignettes, namely dealing with issues related to keeping oneself sane and on track throughout life's ups and downs. The illustrations are in a cartoonish style, but that is fitting with the tone of the work. Anderson's observations are relatable and humorous -- I found myself laughing out a loud more than a few times with this book!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I think that I had seen a reblog or two of this artist’s art on Tumblr, but, I’d never read any amount of them at one time.Most of them are funny, too close to the truth, or both.I especially liked the chortling uterus. All those, so, so true. Also the book ones made way too much sense. And honestly for a big portion of them I just found myself nodding in agreement with them. Pretty awesome (now onto reading the second book)
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Loved loved loved this!! Totally connected with every topic it covered. :)
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A funny, charming, and relatable collection of comics. A quick read that was exactly as enjoyable as I'd hoped.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It was beautiful. I related to about 95% of this book. This book is mostly me.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A collection of simply but adorably drawn little comics about such topics as the emotional trials of introverts, the difficulty of getting out of bed, relationship anxieties, menstrual cramps, bookishness, and clothes (both the buying of them and the leaving of them in stinky piles on the floor). It's a complete delight start to finish, and I found many of the feelings and situations depicted so utterly relatable that it was downright painful. But hilariously so.Why does there appear to be only one of these collections? I want to go out and buy five more of them right now.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Considering that you are probably somewhat bookish and are reading this on the Internet, you've probably seen some of Anderson's comics before. They're cute, and I can relate to about 75% of them, so I enjoyed this book and would recommend it, particularly to other bookish introverts who struggle with feelings of inadequate adultishness.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5On the one hand, I always feel like books of webcomics are a waste, because they're just right there on the Internet for you to see whenever you want, but on the other hand, Sarah just really gets me on a cosmic level, and it was nice to spend 45 minutes flipping through page after page of comics that speak to my very soul.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Awesome art style. And way more relatable than I'm comfortable admitting.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is the story of my life! No, I'm serious. I feel like she followed me around and made comics about my day. HILARIOUS!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A fun read about when adulthood begins and the life of an introvert.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is an adorable collection. I love Sarah's work. She makes me giggle and, at the same time, feel deeply understood. The physical book doesn't have a substantial page count, but it's high quality - the perfect gift or addition to your bookshelf.
