I have to say I overall enjoyed these comics. It's nice seeing it updated and have it relate to what is going on currently in the world. I find these comics very fun and relatable. It's a nice quick read. I can see myself buying this as a gift for someone whose going through tough times so they know they are not alone.

Some good ones again, including some of my recent favorites that have been posted to her FB page. Not my favorite of hers but that's just because all of her work is so amazing.

Overall I really enjoyed this third collection of comics by Andersen. For aspiring artists, or any creative who wants to know how it is for a professional who publishes across multiple different online mediums, the last third of the book is very useful in talking about her experiences, pitfalls and things that have worked well for her.

Definitely a fun book that will brighten someone's day and who will say "omg ITS NOT JUST ME?"

Sarah Andersen is the most relatable ever. Chances are if you're picking up a collection called 'Herding Cats' there will be at least one comic in there you will absolutely relate to on the most basic level. Reading Andersen is always like finding a kindred spirit, and Herding Cats is no exception. Full of comics about cats (obv), Halloween, and being an introvert, this collection was made for people like me.

I LOVE Sarah's drawings. They're always SO relatable and often make me laugh out loud. This instalment was a little different to the first of Sarah's books that I've read, because it includes a little self-help guide for artists towards the end of the book. There's more text than usual, accompanied by her illustrations, but this section only takes up 20 pages or so.
If you haven't picked up Sarah's books or haven't checked out her drawings online, YOU HAVE TO. THEY'RE SO GREAT! Especially for introverts, anxious people and cat and dog lovers!

If you're friends with me on any sort of personal social media account, you probably already know that I have an unhealthy obsession with Sarah's Scribbles. While I adore webcomics from all sorts of artists and sources, Sarah's are some of the few comics that can, without fail, always make me laugh out loud, smile, or even just go, "Yep, been there." This collection is probably my favorite so far. I just about died laughing over some of the comics, while others had me nodding vigorously and biting my tongue to keep from waking up the house with my cries of, "PREACH, GIRL!"

One of the best things about this collection is, at the end, there's a section of 20-ish pages where Sarah offers some advice for aspiring artists. She delves into a bit of how toxic the internet culture has become, especially for content creators, many of whom live in constant fear of criticism, unkindness, and downright harassment. Her words are inspirational, smarmy, and fun, and totally reinforced why I love Sarah Andersen so damn much.

Thank you to Andrews McMeel Publishing and NetGalley for providing me with this ARC in exchange for an honest review!

Not quite as good as the previous two volumes, and left me feeling just sort of "meh". The insights weren't nearly as funny and the quirkiness is becoming tedious.

I liked this one better than her second book, but didn't find the last part geared towards artists to be interesting.

I learned about this talented comic writer from my daughter. The cat cartoons have been especially enjoyed in our household but there is more. Sara Anderson humorously and effectively shows us our anxieties and issues. Try this book. Being able to laugh breaks the hard things down into manageable bites. It will help you to process and digest your experiences!

I really liked many scribbles but others were just average.

I loved Sarah's previous work and loved this latest edition as well. I was so excited to get an advance copy from Netgalley in exchange for a review since I love her comics. All of the comics included in this edition were really relatable to me and I liked that in this version she has a few pages of copy talking about being an artist. She captures reality really well in her comics.

I love Sarah Andersen's work. As an book-loving, cat person introvert it speaks to me on a personal level. While reading I kept interrupting my boyfriend to show him comics that I felt explained myself to him better than any words ever could!
Ms. Andersen's honesty about herself is refreshing as well. She addresses her anxiety and shortcomings in a humorous manner that helped this reader feel less alone and thus less self-critical. I would definitely recommend Herding Cats to my friends and to any patrons (most likely millennial and younger) who need a good laugh and a light read to lift their spirits. I'm eagerly awaiting Sarah Andersen's next comic collection!

It’s likely that fans of Sarah Anderson will have seen all the comics collected in this book, but don’t let that stop you from picking up a copy. Not only are the comics funny (as always) but many of them have more impacted than anticipated. And as a bonus, supporting an artist you love is always a wonderful thing to do.
I’m a fan of Sarah Anderson; I’m not going to deny it. So much of what she draws just really resonates with me. As a creative who struggles with anxiety myself, I feel like she can put those feelings into words (or images, in her case) better than I could ever hope. Seeing the struggles occurring in somebody I respect…it’s a helpful reminder that we’re all human and we all have our own battles to fight. To see her winning those battles (posting artwork and doing what she loves, despite the anxiety and all the other roadblocks) is inspiring.
I love how despite the silly nature of it all, Sarah still takes a moment to be serious and talk to her fans. I’m sure she’s aware (as indicated by her directness in conversation here) that many of her fans look up to her, and would love to do what she does. Instead of seeing them as a threat or potential competition, she encourages them to keep at it; to continue producing artwork and ignore all the critics out there (and let’s be honest here, we’re all our own worst critics). I have so much respect for her for taking this stance.
I can’t wait to see what volume four will contain (I know I can check out her website as well, but I do enjoy supporting the books when they release). Maybe I’ll luck out and it’ll be another cat themed title!

Amazing, as always.

Sarah Andersen is my favorite, and HERDING CATS – the third in her Sarah’s Scribbles series – does not disappoint. Her trademark adorable line drawings, self-deprecating humor, and wry wit are all present and accounted for. While Sarah’s observations run the gamut, from popular trends to personal apocalypses, HERDING CATS is all about the three As: anxiety, animals, and art. Err, make that four: can’t forget about adulting, filed under “things that are impossible and threaten to break me on the daily.” (I feel you, girl. I’ve cried three times and counting, just today.)

The last section includes advice to aspiring artists, punctuated by pithy comic strips for the rest of us. I was not bored.

Some of the comics I remembered from her twitter feed, but many were new, or at least new-to-me. Nearly are all instant classics.

In sum: Buy this book. Buy it meow.

This made me smile and I had to show a few panels to friends because they were extremely relatable - what more could you want from a Sarah Andersen comic? I also really enjoyed the second half, which was Andersen's advice to artists and really just everyone on the internet. There was a lot of care put into it and I really appreciated it. It made me feel hopeful, which is sometimes rare in the current days, especially when discussing the internet. I enjoyed the previous two installments and if you did too, I think you'll also enjoy this one.

Sarah is back with her quirky sense of humour, cats and black leggings.
Fun read. Most of the issues in this book are very relatable and it offers good advice to artists who want to put their works out there. It makes you laugh at life's problems while encouraging you to enjoy life and chase your dreams.

Six word summary: My life displayed in comic format.

What I Love: Everything. These are so hilarious because they are absolutely relatable. I feel like every page I am nodding my head thinking "I thought I was the only one!"

Who should read it: People who also find life ridiculous at times, but enjoy fun as well!

Sarah’s stories are still incredibly relatable, adorable and funny.
As always, I’m looking forward to reading more!

This book was so perfect for lifting up my spirits. I love Sarah's books. They're always so funny and super relatable. This was a fun & light read & absolutely hilarious. It would be a perfect gift for a friend.

I love Sarah's scribbles, and Herding Cats was no exception. In addition to the usual funny-usually-light hearted comics, Herding Cats came with a powerful message: CREATE. This struck home for me, because it IS easy to get caught up in the criticism and fear of messing up. It's harder to push past those feels and just keep creating for no other purpose than your own enjoyment. Because of the simplistic style of these comics, it risks becoming repetitive, but I always find each new batch just as entertaining as the last.
