A review by bookishheather
The Complete Peanuts, Vol. 14: 1977-1978 by Alec Baldwin, Charles M. Schulz

4.0

Starting to play a little too much into the times for me to think it the ultimate in comic expression. There is a LOT of material about jogging, tennis—even a week with Snoopy dressed as John Travolta and doing disco! Some great obscure characters happen by, like Truffles (introduced in the last book) and Eudora. Molly Volley and Crybaby Booby are colorful tennis players Snoopy encounters in tournament. Sadly, there is one joke that gets overused in this volume—the cat next door swiping a pattern into Snoopy's doghouse. However, when the cat, Linus, Woodstock, and Snoopy get in a massive fight to regain Linus' blanket, the winner may surprise you. And in a slightly squishy moment, Peppermint Patty asks Charlie Brown if he loves her. Aww. Not the best Peanuts volume to my mind, but I can't really dislike any of them...
