Destress

I feel that this copy of Zits really distresses me by making me laugh so hard. I reminded me of the things my parents would say to me when I was his age. Good book!

Totally relevant to everyone

If you're a parent, this book is for you. This book is going to help you find out what your teenager is thinking, and how they think. If you're a teenager, this jokes in the strips strike so close to home it's impossible not to laugh. For example, having high school fantasy about girls, or guys, or teachers! I think every teenager and parents can relate to Zits. It's almost like a documentary, told in panels, to the point of déjà vu. I also love the art drawn by Jim Borgman as well. I've all series of Zits treasuries, and will buy if there are more in the future. This particular book contains comics from the two individual books, Thrashed and Pimp My Lunch.

Laugh out loud funny

If you have a 15 year old son (or know someone who does) you'll think the authors have you (or them) on cadid camera. So many times my husband and I looked at each other AFTER we finished laughing as if to say, "that just happened here!". We used to clip the comic strips to send to our son when he was in college. Turns out his roommates' parents were clipping them and sending them, too! Now that he is a recent graduate and living far away from home, he still gets a few clippings from time to time. This book is wonderful when you need a laugh!

Jeremy sulks again

This is a great compilation of Jeremy's antics and that of all his friends who thrive to drive parents to the edge. It's hilarious as always, and anyone with a teenage son can relate to the moods and to the parents' frustration. It's fun and quick reading and when you get to the end, you beg for more. The wit and sarcasm is classic Zits. Another fabulous book by Jerry Scott!!!

What books are in each collection needs to be noted

I agree with the previous comment. I LOVE Zits, but have spent a fortune and waaaay too much time, trying to make sure my sons have each issue without duplicating them. Each collection needs to clearly indicate on the front which sketchbooks are contained therein - only a few of them do this.
