This is a hilarious collection of comics touching on a wide range of subjects.  My personal favorites are those teaching grammar points (such as when to use an apostrophe or a semi-colon) and those with cats.  Lately I have really been wanting a cat which is a huge no-no in my dorm but as I'm graduating this year, perhaps I will get a cat later.  I just miss our family's cat so much and some of the points made ring so true!

The only problem was that in digital format, it was hard to read many of the asides as the writing could not be made bigger.  I'm not entirely sure why but I think it makes sense.  Luckily I was already familiar with some of the comics so I could figure out what most of the words were.
