I don't know exactly how I feel about this book, so I gave it an average rating because of my conflicting feelings. On the one hand, it was a very engaging read–especially with all the hilarious illustrations, and Allie Brosh's voice is witty and funny and casual, and honest. I just had a hard time relating to some of the stories. I am not sure if it was how she was writing it, or if it was the situation itself, but I was definitely forcing myself to just get through with some of the chapters. I don't know how to explain it, but I guess the tone was just off for me.

3 out of 5 stars
