What the heck wouldn’t I try if I had a time machine? As for going back and fixing past mistakes or trying to teach myself a thing or two – I really don’t know. Heck, I doubt I’d WANT to go back and witness all that madness again and be forced to watch it! *shivers* At first silly and this little graphic novel buds into what ends up being a very interesting piece about learning about yourself and maybe even accepting that person. This contains sexual content of the not explicit kind. Those that enjoy a good chuckle or two here and there with the not too naughty comics will probably get a few smirks out of this. Jess Fink does a good job of poking fun at herself without taking anything too seriously and yet still managing to put show more across a slightly serious message beneath the humor.

Art – 3.5 stars – Fun, simple comic strip style art
Story- 4 stars
Overall – 4 stars – Funny, introspective and so much more enjoyable than you’d think at first glane!

Funny, and yet deeply emotional. Who doesn't relate with the idea of going back to warn your younger self not to do stupid crap.
has a few moments where it has the potential to be truly meaningful and insightful but doesn't seem to fully engage with its own subject matter.
fun little read though.
