Oh, Lynda Barry, you know how to cut deep down into my soul! While reading this, I laughed, I cried, I felt awkward (so, so very awkward!). All those emotions, felt so strongly! How did any of us survive adolescence?!? The part with Maybonne's best friend really hit me hard, all of it, just, ouch. Anyway, this book is a roller coaster that will make you feel all the feels about growing up and you'll have all the nostalgia, and Lynda Barry is a genius. Also, the end is perfect and beautiful.
