Hyperbole and a Half · Unfortunate Situations, Flawed Coping Mechanisms, Mayhem, and Other Things That Happened

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!
