Thank you NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for giving me free copy to review.
This was such a funny and relatable read! I'm a big fan of Sarah Andersen and I have enjoyed her last two books so it's safe to say this one was as great and adorable.
I laughed at loud at some of illustrations and 90% of the time I was: OMG that's so me.
The second half about Making Stuff in the Modern Era was a pretty nice addition to this graphic novel and author really hit the nail about feeling nervous when posting your work for everyone to see and criticize.
I can't wait to see her future work! Stay great Sarah!

This series has won me over ever since I learned of its existence and actively decided to read it. The first half reads like comic strips. Most hit close to home and become even more entertaining and existential life crisis inducing the more time you take to think about them.

The second half was my favorite because it melds the comics and drawings to a full dissertation/text/story (?). I loved the message the author presented in that part of the book. The internet can be a negative place and that may provoke anxiety when it comes to sharing your passion with complete strangers online. All you can do is take a chance and try to work with it. When things become too much, take a much-needed break and de-stress. Everyone has been through things that they thought they'd never get through, but you're still here so you can also get through this obstacle too.

I have loved each and every Sarah Scribble's collection made and this one was no different. I always find her content to be funny, relatable, and relevant. I know when I pick up a book by Sarah Andersen that I will come out of reading it in a better mood and with sore sides from laughing. I'd recommend these comic based on their hilarity alone.

This collection also included an essay portion about Making Stuff in our Modern Era that I found to be an interesting read and super relatable. We've all come across trolls on the internet but it was interesting to see the creator side of things as the author talked about her anxiety and exposing one's self on the internet when everyone is a critic. It made for a thoughtful read.

I received an advanced ecopy of this book from NetGalley, so thank you to them. This has no bearing on my review as my opinions are my own.

Sarah Scribbles is one of my absolute favorite web comics. I really love coming across new ones from time to time and these collections have never really disappointed. I do think this one was missing something. Maybe it's just my mood today. I'm not really sure, but as long as Sarah puts out her comics and art, I will continue to read them.

The best Sarah Scribbles collection yet-- consistent comics with bonus content for advice creating art in the modern age (which is actually just applicable to being a person on the internet, too). These comics are so relatable and shareable that you might need to buy two copies. I'm actually thinking of getting one as a gift for the budding artist I know. Besides being funny, the advice at the back is just good. Highly recommended!

Similar to other books by Sarah Andersen, this comedic take on life is relate-able in many ways. Although the title implies it's for people who love cats, it's really for anyone looking to find an outlet of life's problems through humor. Cats, dogs, and sometimes neither are the center of the issues drawn. It's a really fast read, but one a reader will likely find worth sharing with a friend. There's someone for everyone.

Perfect! Funny, witty and as always comically accurate.

This is my first Sarah Anderson book and the hilarious title caught my attention. I must admit, I haven't giggled this much while reading in some time.
Sometimes it is nice to have a quick read that doesn't involve overthinking. This is a perfect choice for that type of situation. Sarah artistically expresses what many of us are thinking or feeling in an amusing way! I found myself laughing and nodding my head "yes!" to many of the illustrated situations. I was a bit thrown off towards the end with the section on staying inspired and involved in the arts, but once I understood the purpose, I enjoyed this section, as well. Overall, this is a fun read that gives the reader a warm and fuzzy feeling.

I give this 5 stars. Sarah's comics are so me it's scary sometimes. Guaranteed to have you laughing.

If you're a fan of Sarah Andersen's previous comics, you will most definitely enjoy these too! Cute, quirky, and funny - just as I expected them to be.

But maybe the best part of this book is when Sarah honestly speaks about being an artist in this day and age. I think it'll resonate with a lot of people, and I appreciated the way Andersen's addressed it here, with just the right amount of humour and seriousness.

She had me at the title "Herding Cats" and I really enjoyed all the cat related comics. I totally sympathized with the author because my cats act the same way. Many of the scribbles are about being socially awkward and introverted and lots of people can relate to those feelings. Comics are not usually my choice of reading material but I found this to be quite engaging. I enjoyed this book.

Herding Cats: A Sarah's Scribbles Collection is the third volume of collected comics from Sarah Andersen. Her distinctive style and humor do a painfully on point job of illustrating the very specific growing pains that occur on the way to becoming a mature, put-together grownup. The illustrations also show how to behave as an adult, even though keeping up that behavior is just as hard as getting there to begin with. At the end there is also encouragement and support for readers trying to keep their head above water when dealing with creativity, art, anxiety, and life in general.

Sarah valiantly struggles with waking up in the morning, being productive, and dealing with social situations. Sarah's Scribbles is the comic strip that follows her life, finding humor in living as an adulting introvert that is at times weird, awkward, and embarrassing. While we might not all have the same levels on anxiety or the same creative outlets as this author and artist- we have all had the moments when we felt so very different, anxious, or other as the drawn version of Sarah. I could relate to so many of her strips. Even in the strips I could not relate personally I could see the reality of the day to day struggles that so many face. I loved the relateable feel, and the perseverance and humor that underlies her actions. Some of the strips were ones I have seen before, since I follow Sarah's Scribbles, however I felt like there were a significant number of fresh, new strips. I also found the other text from Anderson at the end of the book to be uplifting and supportive to artists and others dealing with anxiety or having trouble adulting to be a great way to connect with and support her readers. All most of us want is to know we are not alone, and seeing someone that you might look up to commiserating with the same troubles could be just the encouragement readers need.

I loved this instalment of Sarah Scribbles comic strip collection and gave it five stars. All of her comics are extremely relatable, and that may just be because I am an introverted 22 year old who loves books and animals but I feel like most people can also relate to so many of her comics. This one was particularly relatable for me since in the last 2 years I have found an absolute love of cats that came from my family getting our cat Lilly who is just the light of my life! So now I understand the absolute devotion that comes from cats so much more than dogs, they honestly one day will rule the world.

I have read Adulthood is a Myth by Sarah Andersen which I also had a great affinity with since it is so true! Being an adult is the worst so I just enjoy reading about other peoples suffering in comic form.

I really enjoy her art style, it is really quirky and fun. I also really enjoy how simplistic she makes it through using minimal characters so that we have familiarity with them, using only black and white, and making the dialogue and expressions the main aspect of the comics. I also love how in this form of art using comic strips you really have to exaggerate what you are trying to convey which I think goes really well with the ‘problems’ that she is trying to portray since most of them wouldn’t be considered issues to people other than the introverted individuals who relate to them :)

I love how she can take ordinary every day things and make them so funny and relatable. I also really enjoyed the section that she wrote for writers, I loved how she shared her story and gave some really great advice to aspiring writers and artists. It will really encourage the next generation of artists which I am so happy about, there really has to be something positive out there to let people know that it is possible to put your art out there and it really be appreciated by others, especially with how the internet is today.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone who really just wants something light and fun to read and relate to as well as aspiring artists who just want to see how it is possible to achieve your goals and get some motivation to follow them :)

Thank you Netgalley and the publishers for my copy in exchange for an honest review.

This book was pretty on point. I laughed out loud more than a few times. I am goin to give it 3.5 but round it up to 5 stars. For some reason I thought it would be more around cats and other animals and I wish it was longer. But it was quite funny.

Sarah Andersen is back with the same trademark humor that I love about the previous volumes. The comics about anxiety/depression and creativity are super relatable, and the guide to surviving as an artist in a digital world was encouraging for me as a budding creative.

This is a wonderful book full of fun, quirky drawings and some really good advice to young and old alike. If you are a creative person or know someone who is, this is a great read. Anderson distills truths about every day life into simple yet evocative line art that speaks to all generations.

Sarah Andersen is one of my favourite comic artists out there. Her comics are so quirky, funny and so relatable that I caught myself laughing out loud several times. As an introvert myself, so many of the comics made me think, "I have been in this situation before too" and it felt comforting to think that I am not alone with all these thoughts.

Thank you NetGalley for the preview.

Another home run by Sarah Andersen! I found myself relating to so much in this book just like I have since I first discovered Sarah Andersen.

Interesting and unique to me. I was expecting more kitty fun and adventures. Kind of lost interest before the end.

I didn't like this collection as much as the first one, and maybe not as much as the second one either. There were a handful of panels that made me chuckle, but overall I just felt too old to be reading it! Like the last book, she switched partway through from short comic panels to a long format, this time about being an artist. I couldn't relate to that at all, so a huge chunk of the book was of little interest to me. Still, I'll keeping on reading her comics because she is quite funny and some of her work really speaks to me!
