Rating: 5 🌟
Oddball is the fourth installment in Sarah's scribbles series, and it's a delightful, joyful read as usual. This time around, there are cats, frogs, Halloween, and the most important part:
“Never dim your light for others.”
I've always admired how Sarah incorporates elements of self-love into her work 💛
Thank you to Netgalley for providing this arc.

A perfect fun way to make us feel as human as one can be, with all our differences and peculiarities.
A must-share comic book.
Love it!

When I saw that a new comic book by Sarah Andersen was about to be published, I had to take it on NetGalley of course!!

I'm obviously still in love with her art, style and humour!! I kept recognizing myself and my friends and I loved that some strips were actually serious behind the seemingly light tone. I loved that it represented the odd, the weird, the awkward, but also the kindness and love behind it!

So, still a fan! Hope there'll still be more in the future!

I really enjoyed this book. Sarah's observations about life, the universe, and everything are funny, charming, and relatable.

This collection is cute, funny and relatable. While reading this I found so many pages that brought back the memories of quarantine in a lighthearted way.
What I loved most about this were the pages dedicated to reading (the enemies to lovers one was chef's kiss). I could relate to those the most and I found myself grinning from ear to ear because hello, that's me.
The title - Oddball - is perfect for the theme of the novel of not fitting in, being "different," and trying to find your place in the world.
Lastly, the art style, although simple, makes it easy to fly through the novel because you don't waste time observing details and you just focus on the fun that the pages convey.
Overall, I would highly recommend reading this collection!

I love Sarah Andersen and I've bought her other "Sarah Scribbles" books because I've related to them so much, I have no doubt I'll end up buying this one too. Oddball explores what it means to be a *cough*geriatric*cough* millennial these days, as we dress for comfort more than style, embrace our inner cat lady, and the chaos of the creative artistic process - though that may be different for everyone.
Highly recommend for fans looking for a humorous glimpse of dark, witty reality.

Oddball is a collection of one-page short ‘stories’ that show us some weird moments and facts in life. Some situations are very familiar, that is why they’re funny. 3.5 rounded to 4.

Thanks to the Andrews McMeel Publishing for the ARC and the opportunity to read this! All opinions are my own.

Another silly, funny and all too on point book by Sarah Andersen. The ones I relate to are the funniest - namely, the ones about being introverted and loving cats - but those make up 90% of the book so I'm all good. If you have that specific kind of weird shy personality that makes you "get" Andersen's work, this is another gem.

I've long been a fan of Sarah Andersen and her scribbles, and Oddball is yet another heartwarming, hilarious, and hashtag relatable collection. The comics run the gamut from giggles to outright guffaws, with Andersen's instantly recognizable style. Just a delight from start to finish, and the only problem I can find is that there isn't more of it.

Thank you to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for the advance copy in exchange for an honest review!

Women and their love for true crime, cats, witches, introversion, and the... experience that has been 2020 are all topics that artist Sarah Andersen tackles in this collection of comics.

I picked this book up because I recognized the artist from social media and wanted to read more of her work even though it's outside of my normal genres. I'm glad I picked it up because I really enjoyed it! It was a nice and quick read.

Andersen's art style is simple but expressive, sticking to a black & white palette and using very little shading. I especially love the effect she does in some of her strips that make the cell look blurred. You really get a sense of the artist and who she is through her comics, as she seems to draw on topics that are personal to her.

I found myself laughing out loud at her strips several times. Other times, I wondered if she drew a strip with me in mind! I should note though, I fall into the demographic that I think this artist is drawing to: young people who are at least somewhat familiar with Internet culture and memes. ​If you're outside of this demographic, the book might not be as relatable or as funny to you.

That's the reason why I gave this collection four stars. I personally enjoyed it, but I think you have to have a specific sense of humour or frame of reference to 'get' the jokes. If I gave this book to older relatives of mine, or even younger kids, I don't think the jokes would land as effectively.

4.5 stars. I always love these books. I feel like maybe this one was a little too short and just didn't hold the same feelings for me like the first 2 books do. I will definitely be adding this to my yearly reread of the collection, though.

Sarah’s Scribbles always give me a good chuckle and this book was no exception! I love how relatable her comics are and they are so cute!

A cute graphic novel that was somewhat relatable. I am not a fan of cats though. The adulting part? Understood 100%. Not sure if I will be reading the other 3 Scribble books.

Sarah Andersen has such a distinct art style. Paired with her entertaining commentary, Oddball makes for a fast and fun read.

Adorable! Relatable! Very funny! Totally gets me! Five stars! Really, what is there to say? It's the cute comics from the internet, only a whole book of them. Some topical humor about the pandemic, a lot about introversion and the fandom experience.

Thanks Netgalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for an ARC of this in exchange for my honest review!

I've heard of Sarah's Scribbles before but hadn't gotten around to reading any. I saw this was Read Now on Netgalley and took it as a sign to read it now. Well, this was ridiculously fun and relatable. As an introvert and lover of books and cute animals, pretty much every panel made me smile. I'll definitely be going back to read the rest of the series!

I love Sarah Andersen's cartoons! She is witty, funny, and quite relatable. All of her collections so far have brought me a lot of joy and 'Oddball' is no exception.

Okay these are always such a fun cute read. I feel now that I have cats I appreciate these even more. So I ended up having a really fun time with this one. I even found myself laughing out loud at a few of these. I can't wait to see what Sarah Andersen comes out with next.

*I received a free copy from Netgalley in exchange for my honest opinion.*

Why is this so relatable? WHY????
I follow Sarah on Facebook, so I've seen some of these comics on her page but who cares?! I loved this OK? So when is the 5th book coming out?

I received an ARC of this book thanks to NetGalley and publisher Andrews McMeel Publishing in exchange for an honest review.

This is a brilliant collection of comics! I love Sarah's work and have been a long time fan, and this is a perfect selection to put together. The main themes are struggling with adulthood, being nerdy and weird, cats and other aspects of fandom. The art style is very cute, as are the comics themselves. It will definitely bring a smile to your face and would make a perfect gift for someone to brighten their day
