The quirks now sound a bit mean, as though the introvert has turned into an out and out misanthrope. This happened with the first couple of comics and threw me off a bit.
The book jumps right into a comic, almost, that is to say, without warning. The two comics below are the only ones I truly enjoyed, the first more than the second. I can’t quite point out to what went wrong where, but I feel like I’ve read the whole introverted, socially anxious angle before and that Sarah isn’t bringing anything new to the table (yes, she did try to make a few political statements, but they didn’t quite pack a punch). However, having read both her previous works, Herding Cats seemed a tad underwhelming. I loved that book and the comics were quirky and original.
Sarah’s Scribbles # 2 (Big Happy Mushy Lump) was the first book I’d reviewed last year, and I’d declared Sarah Andersen to be my hero. Herding Cats is the third book in the Sarah’s Scribbles series.
