This book is so relatable! I loved every single page. The artwork is so simple yet so effective, and the author is one of my favorite comic authors too. I've been following her on social media for some time now, and at every new sketch i'm never dissapointed! i highly reccomend this book, especially to women!

Loren Brantz is keeping this real from board books for feminist babies and now this phenomenal genuinely funny book for the grownups is guaranteed to get you grinning. We need more female positive and individuality embracing books like this.. Goodbye Cathy, hello Loryn!!!!!

not? It'll be light, fluffy, and funny." And it was exactly that! This book basically consists of comics that are extremely relatable to just about any girl nowadays lol. It wasn't anything out of this world, but it had me laughing out loud a couple of times (which is really hard and rare). It definitely heavily reminded me of Sarah scribbles, but I personally found Sarah's comics to be a bit funnier. I wouldn't say it was a rip off of her work, I mean it's an internet type comic. They're all similar. The art work isn't anything new either, it's just typical. But it was still enjoyable which is why I gave it a three stars. I do recommend it if you're looking for relatable, internet comics in book format.

Lady Stuff: Secrets to Being a Woman
by Loryn Brantz
I requested this book from NetGalley and the review is voluntary.
This book is so cute and funny and spot on! I can relate to soooo many things in this book, she is so talented! The art itself is hilarious! Make up, clothes, socializing, watching movies when an animal dies, and so much more! Too funny! Most things only us ladies would understand! Great job!

This is very funny and identifiable. I enjoyed it and see myself in a lot of these same situations.

Lady Stuff won me over with the cover. It got a slight chuckle out of me, and so I knew that I wanted to read it. Now… I’m not a lady, but I am married to one, and so I found this book to be quite amusing. It wasn’t exactly stuff I didn’t know about, but rather for me it was things I can relate to on the other side of the aisle.

The stories are all single page gags, which is to say that there are a setup and a punchline on each page. Sometimes it’s a quick joke, other times there’s a build up to the gag. Usually, when I read a collection of comic strips, there’s a point in which I become punch drunk, and the gags stop working and you have to wonder if there was just too many similar gags collected. Not the case here. I was surprised by how quickly I was able to read the entire book, but that I never got bored or found it repetitive. That’s a huge credit to creator Loryn Brantz because I have read too many collections that instantly became boring and repetitive. I wanted to finish reading Lady Stuff, rather than needing to finish it for this review.

The artwork has an intentionally simple style, which plays to the strength of the humor. The line work is clean with thick lines that give it a distinct style. There are some strips that are better illustrated than others which shows some gradual growth to the art. The strips are mostly in black and white with usually one or two colors to highlight a gag or give a quick background.

Lady Stuff may be geared primarily towards women, but if you’re in your thirties, you’ll find plenty to relate to, even more so if you’re married or have had a least one adult relationship. It’s a fast and enjoyable read.

I've seen Loryn Brantz's comics come across my Facebook and Tumblr feed on the regular, and every time they do I get a little giggle out of them. Loryn does a fantastic job of taking the thoughts that that run around in women's heads and plops them down on paper to hilarious effect.
This was a simple quick read that had me laughing out loud all the way through.
My only complaint is that I had seen quite a few of the panels before reading this collection, and I had not been a regular reader of hers. I imagine that if you were a fan it might be a little disappointing that there wasn't more content that was exclusive to this publication.

Absolutely hilarious. Brantz has a talent for finding the funny in the inane and mundane.

Odds are you’ve probably seen work by Loryn Brantz floating around the internet before – her artwork, while simple, is very iconic and easy to recognize. It’s also pretty popular on facebook (at least in my circle of friends and groups).

Lady Stuff compiles a decent chunk of her work in one easy to find place. Some of the comics have already gone viral online, so if you’re looking for 100% new content, this isn’t it. Unsurprisingly the focus of this collection of works can be identified by the title: lady stuff. Most of the comics revolve around dating, make up, or otherwise “woman focused” jokes. Pretty much all of the comics have a healthy dose of irony or satire (depending on what is called for at the moment) and the title shouldn’t be taken seriously (as in, these secrets aren’t really secrets, or guaranteed to be accurate facts in any way, shape, or form).

Lady Stuff was pretty funny and enjoyable, but I also don’t think it’s a book I would have pre-ordered or rushed out to buy on release day. It’d make a perfect gift for somebody though, so keep that in mind come holiday/birthday shopping time!

Lady Stuff: Secrets to Being a Woman are little comics about Loryn Brantz’s everyday experiences. The comics are about animals, friends, love and naps.

Lady Stuff: Secrets to Being a Woman is such a funny, lighthearted read. I couldn't stop smiling while going through the comics. Some of them were so relatable and hilarious! I've seen some of Loryn Brantz's work on Facebook or Twitter, but never saw all of them. This collection is so funny and I'll definitely read it again!

Hahahaha. These are freaking hilarious. I have seen these little drawings before in memes online, but I never knew there existed out there in the world somewhere A WHOLE BOOK OF THEM!

I absolutely love them. The collection is awesome. It has a little bit of everything. It shows very realistic depictions of dating, work life, home life, life goals, dieting goals, etc. Haha. I love it.

There is one concerning your shoe making a fart noise that almost made me die because it applies to me so much. Another, concerning a cat on the lap also hit very close to home. There was also a ten step guide to how to drive your lover wild. That one was one of my absolute favorites.

Seeing another woman talking to your boyfriend vs. seeing another woman talking to your best friend is also quite hilarious and, dare I say, right on point. Haha.

Seriously, this little book just gave me all the giggles. I loved it.

Although I could relate to many of the scenarios presented in the book, I didn't connect with the humor. The concept is great, but the jokes feel flat in my opinion.

A very quick, fun and relatable read that will make you smile.

Pick it up and give it a read, it's a big thumbs up from me.

This is a fun little book. I enjoyed reading her observations on life and the drawings really added to it. I would definitely like to read more of this series. Nothing super insightful or deep for me, just a nice, happy book.

I received a free ARC from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

I am quite new to the Comic/Graphic Novel scene and I enjoyed "Lady Stuff: Secrets to Being a Woman" by Loryn Brantz. The book is around 130 pages and I finished it in one go. The panels were colourful and adorable. It was very relatable to the stuff women do everyday- from looking like a panda after putting on too much eye makeup, cozying in the bed and skipping work, reaction to pets, funny eating habits to name a few. There were panels which made me laugh out loud and some that I felt were repetitive and some that did not get any reaction from me. Overall, it was a very nice, refreshing and light read.

I loved this a lot. Very relatable and laugh-out-loud funny the whole time. Fans of Sarah's Scribbles need to read.

Although I found some of these vignettes funny, I was disappointed that there were no comics in it that made me laugh out loud. However, humor is often different for everyone, so I do suggest giving this book a try.

There are quite a few situations described in these comics that women will be able to relate to.

I rate LADY STUFF as 3 out of 5 stars.

I loved this comic! It is so full of true and insight comments about a ladies life with the humour that I need to overcome little annoyances in my day to day.

I really enjoyed reading this! I've been a fan of Loryn Brantz's comics since seeing them on Buzzfeed and whilst some of the comics in this were familiar, I enjoyed all the same. I did feel like some of the comics were based on things that I have seen other artists do, however enough of them were quirky and original enough for my overall enjoyment of the collection to not be impacted. A great book for a little pick me up!
