Forsman has expanded the first edition, which sold out quickly in the wake of the success of the Netflix adaptation of his graphic novel The End of the Fxxxing World , to include over 20 new pages as well as a new cover. Sydney seems like a normal year-old freshman. Forsman expertly channels teenage ethos and ennui in a style that evokes classic comic strips while telling a powerful story about the intense, and sometimes violent, tug of war between trauma and control. This rocky journey is as insightful as it is brutal. It may be the only way to wind up a story that lurches so unpredictably from the ordinary to the ominous.

Sad, yes, I know. First I was really digging it, then it just got super-depressing and didn't really go anywhere, to be honest.

If you watched Netflix's newest angst-ridden teen series I'm Not Okay With This and thought it strongly resembled the plot to a great young adult novel somewhere, you aren't totally wrong. Because even though the show is based on a graphic novel rather than a picture-less binding of thousands of words alone, the source material isn't just a script that was pitched to Netflix. Of course the more important question here is how the book compares to the show and, if you are so inclined to wonder, what the I'm Not Okay With This book spoilers are. Even if you are only halfway through the wild ride that is the Netflix Original, you might already be scratching your head trying to figure out how it all ends. And if you are prepared to spoil yourself silly with the details of the book to see if it lines up with the series, then you have come to the right place. One of the biggest differences between the I'm Not Okay With This book and show is the style in which the book is designed. The graphic novel was created by Charles Forsman, whose work inspired the TV adaptation to a point. But the live action series doesn't feature any of the animations for which the graphic novel is known. The book does feature many of the same plot points, however, like Syd's best friend Dina and her superpower mentor, Stanley.

Darius Kellner speaks better Klingon than Farsi, and he knows more about Hobbit social cues than Persian ones. He's about to take his first-ever trip to Iran, and it's pretty overwhelming—especially when he's also dealing with clinical depression, a disapproving dad, and a chronically anemic social life. In Iran, he gets to know his ailing but still formidable grandfather, his loving grandmother, and the rest of his mom's family for the first time. And he meets Sohrab, the boy next door who changes everything.

Like Dad, Syd self-medicates with pot. Peter Landau. Part of Series. It is absolutely shocking to the reader in how impulsive it is and that is effective at showcasing the nature of many suicides in real life. It may be the only way to wind up a story that lurches so unpredictably from the ordinary to the ominous. Stay safe. I fall on the pretty darn left side of the political spectrum but complaints about this book are why moderates and conservatives hate libs. It's not even clever. In the case of I Am Not Okay With This I was seeing reviews going far past that and saying that no male author should write from a female perspective and they should all step aside to let female authors tell the stories. I don't recommend it. Okay, I get that.

Now, he's back for a second helping of teenage angst and drama, with a little dash of superpowers thrown in for good measure, in I Am Not Okay with This. This new series sees Sydney Sophia Lillis dealing with some truly difficult personal trauma in her life, complicated by the balancing act between high school drama and romantic entanglements, and an unexplained, burgeoning set of superpowers.

I found this real and haunting. Unfortunately, it was just depressing and cruel. I would like to see this author invest more time in their characters. Forsman has expanded the first edition, which sold out quickly in the wake of the success of the Netflix adaptation of his graphic novel The End of the Fxxxing World, to include over 20 new pages as well as a new cover. Translation missing: en. Those simple days are gone in the storyworld this comic depicts. Previous page. Reviews with images. Just depressing and cruel and pointless. The book is good but the show is better. Maybe the superpower is really just a metaphor for wanting to hurt people? Some of my favorite stories are the most depressing ones. Overall, it feels like attempts at being dark and edgy for the sake of being dark and edgy, while withholding any of the story elements that make such media engaging.
