Now I’m just an introvert who’s out of his shell enough to be engaged to a woman who falls pretty in line with a lot of these comics too. Reading it is like jumping back into those simpler days, when tumblr was thriving and not RIP thanks to their decision to nix “adult content.” When I was at my most anti-social and her comics felt closest to home. But it’s been a while since I read her comics, and even a while since I added this collection to my to-read list, so it was a nice forgotten gem amongst my oversized, mostly forgotten about to-read list when I finally referenced it again. The art style was rough, yet quirky, like Sarah herself. Having grown up during the days of tumblr, I was all too familiar with “Sarah’s Scribbles.” Of all the popular webcomics, hers was always the one I had the most personal connection with. And Sarah Andersen’s collection, Adulthood is a Myth, sounded like the perfect first choice. They’re short, they’re light, and they require more attention to take them all in, due to their more visual nature. Since I’m still trying to work my way back into the groove of reading, I felt that the safest option was probably more comics.
