I’ve been reading Dharma Comics online for years — it is always an unexpected delight when a new one comes out and brightens my day a bit — so I was excited when I found out that a collection of them was coming out in print. Reading them all together, even though I’d seen them (almost!) all before, was a different experience. Tied together by the author’s narrative of how she came to start drawing and why she continues to do so imparts a personal connection that makes the stick show more figures looking up at me from the page all the more touching.

It is the perfect book to have laying out in view for people pick it up, open to a random page, and inevitable chuckle with pleasure at whichever scene they’ve discovered. Alas, I have to get a new copy because I’ve already given mine away to a friend who was feeling tender. I should probably buy several, I think I’ll be giving more away. show less

I hate to give a bad review about anything, but this book is not worth the cash. Luckily I was given a gift card, but if you're interested, check it out of the library.The problem with so many computer books is that by the time they come out the program's been updated. This book came out last year, and facebook looks quite different, just a few months later. As a Fb rookie but computer nerd, I could translate from the old to the new, but a computer rookie would be totally lost.So, don't buy show more it. There were a few tidbits and explanations of a few things that helped, but not that many. At least it counts against my woefully low book total for this year. show less

If you are new to Facebook, this is a good book for you. Being a more experienced user, I found the chapters about using Facebook for business to be more interesting. A good reference guide!

I'll be reading this book in stages as I navigate through my Facebook page. I hope it helps me understand how to clean it up and make it more user-friendly. Not much for social media. Only have it to keep up with pictures of my grandkids in another city. Don't use it for me.
