I have mixed feelings about this graphic novel -- but maybe that is the point! Some stories were funny. Other stories were just okay...but I found myself thinking in both cases, OMG did that really happen to you / did you really do that!? 

If you are looking for a short, fast, cute, and funny read, I would suggest this book.

I was sent this book by NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.

I loved this book! It is written in the forms of letters, messages, and cartoons. It made me laugh and feel for all of the people who submitted their stories for this book. Breaking up is hard and there are better ways to do it than the ways shown in this book. I think that this is a book everyone can relate to and can get something out of, even if it is just a laugh and escape from reality.

I highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone.

Hilariously funny. And it truly makes me appreciate the fact that I am a married woman and no longer have to be a part of the dating pool. Some of these stories were funny in the most “that must have sucked to be them” kind of way.

If you've ever broken up with someone then this is the book for you! The hilarious (and sometimes cringy) stories are paired with hand drawn pictures relating to the story. I honestly wasn't to sure if I'd like this one but once I got started I flew through it. I really wanted to read more terrible stories and see more drawings. I'm really hoping there will be more books like this in the future, they're great! I would recommend this book if you like to read cringy breakup stories, this will be right up your alley!

This is a very quick and easy read, I finished it in around 20 minutes - if you need something swift for a lunch break or before bed then this might be for you. It is worth noting that on Kindle the graphics/drawings sometimes appear somewhat randomly and break up the story (I do not know if this will happen on devices other than the Kindle).

Less than 20% of the way in and two of the stories have (negatively) referred to someone's weight, this is really disappointing to me. While I am aware that they are candid stories that were written by real people I think this unecessary level of fat/body shaming in any form of media is damaging and should have been edited out/removed.

An interesting concept but unfortunately it fell in to the classic trope of men who break up with women are d*cks but women who break up with men are crazy, there was a clear difference between the two "types" of break up and added to the body shaming mentioned above do not work well with me.

However, I will end this review with a line from the introduction that I can relate to completely, "but in the meantime at least there is always more toast."

Overall it is hilarious. Some of the stories in the first few pages are funny but then I get bored. I like the illustration. It is cute

This his book was hilarious and surprisingly, made me feel better. To me, this is a weird kind of self-help book. It was a light read, the stores were funny but overall I was surprised to see how relationships can go wrong, with so many people.
I don't know why but I feel good and relieved after reading this. The book comes with bite-sized real-life breakup stories accompanied by cartoons. The cartoons are the fun part. Thanks to the writer for writing this book. Really lucky to receive the arc from NetGalley.

It was a fun and easy read, with a bunch of stories that made me giggle a bit.
It isn't a book I will ever read again, but it was enjoyable.

I would recommend this to fans of Post Secret and The Mortified Guide. It is equal parts hilarious and excruciating, engaging but not demanding. The illustrations are amusing and, bonus, LGBT-inclusive. I enjoyed this a lot and think this would be a good purchase for my (public) library system. Probably best for adults and older teens, as some of the content is pretty mature.

'Breaking Up is Hard To Do...But You Could've Done Better' by Hilary Campbell is a collection of terrible breakup stories that some illustrations have been added to.

Breaking up is never easy, and things can go really wrong. This collection tells stories of how wrong it can go sometimes. Break ups where a Game Boy is thrown at someone, or someone is dumped but then dates a very similar girl are thankfully not common, but bad things do happen to people during breakups.

This book is darkly humorous, and the stories are so bizarre. Perhaps there is comfort in numbers, so having something like this to read at a bad time might help the reader feel better. The illustrations are cute and help to show sometimes how weird things can look or sound.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Animal Media Group and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.

I received this arc from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

In this book, Hilary Campbell documents and illustrates various anonymous breakups. While some are poignant, most are humorous. Some stories are a few sentences, while others are over a page. Considering readers will find joy in the suprise of the stories, I won’t elaborate on any of the tales, but the Harry Potter breakup was my favorite.
My only complaint is that I wish the book was longer, since I greatly enjoyed the stories and illustrations.
I recommend this book to anyone looking for a quick laugh.

I found the stories to be really interesting and would have read a longer book of break up stories. I didn't particularly find the illustrations brought a lot to the stories but I did not think they were a distraction and they were pretty good. It was a quick, fun read.

I loved the idea and set up of this book. I swung back and forth to funny and OMG what the heck? The art was good but ill-placed. It didn't fit in some places. While some parts were chuckle-worthy some were cringe-worthy.

I am a big fan of overheard stories that are being shared on social media platforms and I was not disappointed by this book. It is a very light read to take your mind of whatever is keeping you busy and I read it at one sitting. The drawings accompanying the stories were mildly funny but not the highlight to be honest, I read this book solely for the stories.

Most of the stories were funny and I loved the pictures at the end (it made it 2x funnier) but some of the material was average and could have been much more humorous if that was the author’s intention. Also, I thought the stories could have been a bit more organized in the order they came in.

Thanks Netgalley and publishers for allowing me to read for a review.

I had a fun time reading this. The book is made up of different, real-life breakups that happened from different genders, ages, and sexualities but they don't matter in the end because it's the stories that make you feel a bit better about a breakup you might've gone through.

The drawings add a nice touch to the stories and also help them become funnier by adding a new image to the thought of crossing the country to meet your significant other for their birthday and planning a big party only to find out they've been cheating on you with their best friend who also helped you plan the party.

And that's just one example.

Breaking Up Is Hard To Do...But You Could've Done Better is a big recommend. It's not a long read and you can get it done in an afternoon and laugh along the way.

Super entertaining read. A collection of break up stories sent in from a bunch of different people anonymously, and Hilary Campbell drew comics to illustrate each story which in my opinion was the best part. I chuckled quite a bit. Some stories brought back memories of personal experiences and some stories I was left thinking WTF!

Received a digital ARC of this book via NetGalley.

A quick read that I thought would be funny. There were a few that tickled me. I’m so glad that I never had to experience any break-ups like these people.

Was shocked how short this book was. I was done in literally 30 min from start to finish. This was just OK. This is a collection of anonymously submitted break up stories that were. Some were recent, in others people remembered break ups from when they were 8 or in middle school. The stories did not make me laugh. I was mostly rolling my eyes at either how badly a story was written or at the ridiculous situations and relationships that people put themselves into. Drawings were nice, but they were way too obvious. I wanted a little more from both the stories and the drawings.

This book was great!! For anyone that has ever been dumped or dumped someone else in a ridiculous way, you need to read this book.
