How about never? Is never good for you?

How about never? Is never good for you? My life in cartoons by Bob Mankoff

Mankoff, long time cartoon editor of The New Yorker, has produced a biography that is mostly cartoons, some prose, and totally funny. Included are many of his own cartoons, and those of the legendary cartoonist of the magazine—Garson Kanin, Sam Gross, and George Booth. How does a cartoon get chosen for The New Yorker? Can an aspiring cartoonist make a living at it? How can you win the magazine’s Cartoon Caption Contest? Mankoff tells all, and hilarity ensues.

In Hyperbole and a Half, graphic novel meets memoir in this heartfelt collection from blogger Allie Brosh. If you’re a fan of Lynda Barry, this book may just be your cup of tea. It’s touching, insightful, and laugh-out-loud funny, especially when she writes about her dogs.
