This is a compilation of Nicole Georges' zines that she did well before writing Calling Dr. Laura. Had I attempted to read it before reading and loving that particular book, I probably wouldn't have made it ten pages in. It's scattered and reads more like a diary than a book, which makes sense because that's mostly what it is. This isn't a memoir or story, but rather a disjointed account of some times in Nicole's life. It's charming to read after reading Dr. Laura, even if the artwork is no where near what she pulls off in Dr. Laura and there even seem to be contradictions between the two works despite them both being autobiographical. Nevertheless, worth reading if you liked Calling Dr. Laura as much as I did and want to see how Georges started out and where her roots are at. Also, it has some decent recipes in it!
