A nice quick read for those who love art and those who simply enjoy laughing. Full of comics about art, it was funny while also being completely truthful in the irony of it all. Being someone who has spent so much time drawing, it hit a little close to home. It was really lovely to read and funny, an artist or not. It also gives advice to anyone who wants to draw and those who have been doing it for ages in a way that was funny. I recommend this for a quick read that'll make you laugh.

I  recieved a free digital copy of this book from Netgalley for an honest review.
This is my first time reading any of the Sarah Scribbles books, and I have to say that the book made me legit cackle!
Each of the comics were completely relatable. Throughout the book I kept saying to myself "That's so me!" One of my favorites was the one about the shaved legs ! 😂
I definitely have to check out the other Sarah Scribbles collections!

This gets a high rating from me. It is so me. I related to almost every single panel in this little graphic. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. The book is funny, laugh out loud. Even when you have an illness or mental health problem, sometimes you just have to find ways to bring out the humor, poke fun at yourself. I guess some people might call that morbid humor?

It got one less star than the first two volumes, but I can't quite pinpoint why. I still related to 90% of it, but there was something off during reading this volume.

I love her art and the comic strips. I see people giving this mixed ratings, but for me, I think I am on the higher rating/liking side because I really do see myself in these books.

Herding Cats is a series of one page illustrated, comical observations by the author about her life, from things like the difference in housework rewards between sexes to her anxiety. A nice addition at the end was a personal essay on how to survive as an artist in the Internet age, which was very personal and reassuring. Though I am not a fan of the art style, I still enjoyed all the comics and the essay, particularly as a young person hoy en dia.

I really don't know if I can say anything other than "Sarah Scribbles". Seriously, she hits the nail on the head SO MANY TIMES. Some of the comics she does are like she is peering into my head and copying things down. She is nothing short of amazing, and the end was very serious, but not in a bad way. Definitely worth getting and reading, especially if you are a budding artist and need some advice. The end of this was written for you.

5, as if there could ever be any other rating, stars.

My thanks to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for an eARC copy of this book to read and review.

I've been following this comic artist for a while and W aas SO EXCITED when she came out with this book. It is funny and so relatable!

Sarah is always a lot of fun.

And dang it, she is relatable. If you can’t find several cartoons here to laugh out loud at because you completely understand where she’s coming from, you may not be human.

And there’s some great advice for artists in the back of this - in trying to navigate the online world, and the world in general. I think it may be geared mostly toward younger artists, but I’m approaching a ½-century, and thought it applied to me, too.

"Go make stuff."

Another hilarious collection of comics about dealing with anxiety, being introverted, loving life, and staying creative! I just adore Sarah Andersen's work. She has such a unique way of cutting to the heart of what brings delight or disaster into our everyday lives. She actually makes me laugh out loud, crazy giggle, and chuckle to myself when I read her work.

The only reason I took off one star is because I'm not a pet person, and several of the comic panels are about loving dogs and cats. I'm just 'meh' about pets, so those didn't interest me. However, pet owners would probably love those.

Disclaimer: I received an ecopy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for a free and honest review. All the opinions stated here are my own true thoughts, and are not influenced by anyone.

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.

So what did I think?

+2 | Entertainment value. As usual Sarah captures bits of life that we can all relate to and forms it into such clever and hilarious comic book scenes

+1 | Drawings. The style used matches the tone perfectly and captures the words perfectly

+1 | Not just humor. This particular Sarah's Scribbles had a section for advice for artists. Though I'm not one, I could relate and I loved how it was incorporated into the story

+/-0.5 | More. I just simply want more.

Another great comic collection by the amazing Sarah Andersen, who perfectly describes every-day struggles of introverts, artists, women and cat owners.

I would like to thank Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with an arc copy of Herding Cats! This is one of my most anticipated releases of 2018 and I am so happy to have had to chance to read it in advance!


The first thing you need to know about this review is the fact that I'm a huge "Sarah Scribbles" fan! I have read and loved her two previous volumes and Herding Cats is no exception!


Why do I like Sarah Scribbles?


I can recognize myself in quite a lot of her drawings, especially those about reading and buying books, being an introvert and having menstrual cramps. Sarah Andersen's work can be brutally honest but will make you laugh at the same time. It's by far my favourite comic collection and I will continue to read every single one she publishes!


Herding Cats focusses a bit more on Sarah's life and struggles as an artist. She is honest about how the internet affected her and her work but also knows that the internet has changed. The internet can be a wonderful place but it can also be cruel. As I am not an artist myself, I didn't relate to that part as much, but as a blogger, I could relate in a sense. It took a huge step to start this blog and even though I never had negative remarks, it can sometimes be challenging to put your thoughts out there. (Recent events in the book blogging world have sadly made this abundantly clear).


I obviously had to give Herding Cats 5 out of 5 stars! The collection feels very relatable to me and that's one of its biggest strengths in combination with the fact that it's absolutely hilarious! I will read anything Sarah Andersen publishes in the future and I can't wait to read the next volume. I will also be buying Herding Cats to add to my collection!

I love Sarah Andersen. She depicts an introvert's life perfectly.

I've read the previous two comics in this series, and I hope she keeps them coming in the years to come.

In the meantime, I'll settle for her facebook page.

I received a digital copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Though this is a collection of brief comics, I fell in love with the characters from the beginning. I love Sarah Andersen's comics and artwork. It always brightens my mood as well as my day. To have read so many fun and humorous comics, I know what to pick up when I'm feeling down.

A wonderful compilation of Sarah Andersen's art, including a wonderfully illustrated motivational, inspirational piece at the end.

I don't really read a lot of graphic novels, but I like both the style of the illustrations and the topics the author talks about. Daily life mixed with anxiety topics and all in all things that I personally can easily relate to. And while I had fun reading Herding Cats, I felt some of the spark of her previous graphic novel was missing... I especially loved the cat and reading related graphics, which I obviously could really relate to, but other pages didn't manage to speak to me in a way I was expecting when I started reading it. Herding Cats is still a fun read though and perfect to take a little break, get yourself a cuppa and just absorb those pages. Coming out in March!

Sarah Andersen helps us all realize we’re not quite as weird as we think we are. Or maybe that we’re ALL doing the same weird things. Her work is so relatable and refreshing. I was banned from reading this in bed while my husband tried to sleep because I my attempts to contain my laughter we’re too disruptive. Herding Cats is laugh out loud funny and a great example of Andersen’s signature humor.

I absolutely love Sarah's Scribbles. I do follow a bit on FB so some of these were repeats. And, while I hat to know that another person fights anxiety, it's good to know you're not alone and get a small giggle out of it every now and then.

The little inspirational part toward the end for other artists is a nice addition.

As an introvert and cat lover prone to anxiety, Sarah’s work is like someone created a comic of my life! I adore Sarah’s art and am grateful she has persevered over the doubt and negativity of others to share this important and entertaining work with the world!

I've truly enjoyed both of Sarah Andersen's previous books and was excited to read this one as well. I did enjoy it, but not quite as much as the previous two. The second part, although not necessarily as humorous, is full of great reminders for everyone trying to make their way in the world by being creative, as well as just being a polite human.

Sarah Andersen is back with another book for anyone who enjoys webcomics! If you aren't familiar with her comics, they depict scenes that are relatable to animal lovers, students, creatives, and basically anyone who experiences emotions.

As with most famous internet cartoonists, I expected Andersen's book to simply be a collection of the short comics I see on Facebook or Twitter and some that I'd never come across. While it definitely has a bunch of the quick, hilarious, and relatable comics Andersen posts on her social media pages, I was surprised at the section that came last.

In the end, Andersen adds a chapter titled "Making Stuff in the Modern Era: A Guide for the Young Creative". There are a few sections to this, each highlighting a different part of the life of posting your art, writing, music, or any other project on the Internet for all to see.

It's no secret that this place has become an integral part of life for most people. Unfortunately, for every problem the Internet fixes, it also creates several new ones. That's why Andersen is here to tell her readers that it's okay to be scared to share your work so publically. People can be harsh, but they can also be incredibly kind. Andersen offers advice from her experiences on how to handle this anxiety, pick yourself up after you fall, and continue to grow through the best and the worst.

I would definitely recommend this to everyone!
