Humor: 'Hyperbole and a Half' by Allie Brosh

Allie Brosh started out by posting illustrated, humorous stories about everyday events in her past and present life on a blog.

It became so popular that she wrote and illustrated this book, with 18 episodes on everything from depression to how she stole cake as a child.

Billionaire Bill Gates called it "funny and smart as hell," and many people say that her depiction of depression is the most accurate one they've ever read.
