A Note From the Publisher
Christina De Witte began creating comics in art school but was criticized for their "childish" nature. Despite the negative criticism, she continued to pursue her dream of creating webcomics and in time, Chrostin was born. Now 20 years old, Christina studies Communications and lives with her father, grandfather, brother, and cat in a small city in Belgium.
Advance Praise
PRAISE FOR CHROSTIN ON INSTAGRAM
"[Chrostin's] highly relatable situations have made her every girl's best friend on Instagram."

Bored Panda,
"De Witte's message is simple but powerful. She
wants to remind everyone with her comics that it's OK to feel like
you're a total mess sometimes. That's something we can all relate to."

Upworthy
"[Chrostin's comics are] so on point it hurts."
---
Comedy Central UK
Chrostin . . . is a character to be reckoned
with. From her obsession with snacks to her passive attention to beauty
standards, Chrostin is seriously all of us just trying to (occasionally)
win at life."
