Seventy-Thousand-Billion Stars out of Five Stars
This is the cover of one of the most brilliant and hilarious books of our time.
This is what the summary says:
Have you read a better summary than that? Now, add these lumpy creatures that are humans and vivid and detailed creatures that are animals. Also, it's hilarious. That's all I can say that's slightly coherent. Just trust me and stop everything you've ever done and read Hyperbole and a Half.
Thank you, Edelweiss, for giving me the amazing opportunity of reviewing this book, even though it took me months to actually gather my thoughts together.

This is the cover of one of the most brilliant and hilarious books of our time.
This is a book I wrote. Because I wrote it, I had to figure out what to put on the back cover to explain what it is. I tried to write a long, third-person summary that would imply how great the book is and also sound vaguely authoritative--like maybe someone who isn’t me wrote it--but I soon discovered that I’m not sneaky enough to pull it off convincingly. So I decided to just make a list of things that are in the book:
Pictures
Words
Stories about things that happened to me
Stories about things that happened to other people because of me
Eight billion dollars*
Stories about dogs
The secret to eternal happiness*
*These are lies. Perhaps I have underestimated my sneakiness!
