Summary: Tiny Sepeku Delivers BIG Laughs!!
Review: Advice from a cartoon character?! YEE HAH, yeah, and some of the best durned advice I've ever heard. If you've ever had a crush, been in love, been out of love, or been birthed at one time or another, this book is for you. Tiny knows what's really going on; psychotic women, frantic men, love, lust, loss, and the ultimate fact that we're all alone in this uproarious universe. The sooner you grasp that, the sooner you can laugh at life, yourself, and this book. But don't read it while eating... laughing steak out your nose is a might painful.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Peerless Humor!
Review: As an avid fan of this strip for several years, I say "Hurrah!" to the wise individuals at Andrews McMeel who jumped at the chance to publish this book. My local newspaper seems to only erratically print the Sepuku strip, so I am overjoyed to finally be able to have a well bound archive of Tiny's wisdom. If you are someone who has ever had (or wanted to have) a relationship of any kind with another person, this book is for you. However, if you are often disturbed by the questionable ethics and edgy dialogue of "Family Circus" or the Dadaist antics of "Mary Worth", Tiny may be too much for you.
In all other cases, do yourself a favor and get this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wicked Funny
Review: Hot damn, this is wicked funny stuff. If I wasn't too busy snorting in laughter, I'd probably be crying from how dead on some of these questions were. Can't wait for the next one!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Incredibily accurate... sometimes!
Review: I bought this book not knowing what to expect and it seems to be one of the best books that I own. It's a great conversational piece with friends and at the same time rings a truth to so many that almost no one can be offended by it. Of course, if you are a oversensitive person that cannot find the humor in the similarities I would not recommend it to you!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Scathingly funny -- look past the custesy art.
Review: I found this book and a Pooch Cafe book at a bookstore in NY recently. Why aren't these strips in the newspaper? I'm tired of all the bland, non-funny strips - it's time for a new generation of comic strips that actually make you laugh instead of saying, "I could have wrote that."

This book is sad and funny and ultimately a great read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Scathingly funny -- look past the custesy art.
Review: I read this cartoon in our weekly newspaper and I looked forward to each new issue. It is "Dear Abbey" meets a cartoon Seinfeld. Tiny takes a humorous and ironic look at the way in which we sabotage our own relationships. Who hasn't been through the ringer when it comes to love? Misery loves company and with this anthology of Tiny Sepuku's romance advice to readers' letters from all over the country, one gets a sense of how senseless relationships can be.
A must read. I will definitely buy a copy for my next ex-girlfriend!

Summary: UGH! Repetitive .. uninspired .. flat, tepid, one trick pony
Review: The concept behind this comic strip might have some potential -- if it were tackled by a more consistently competent writer. Unfortunately, you get the feeling most of the strips are cranked out the night before they're due ... after a bout of writer's block...and it gets real stale, real quick. In a weekly or semi-weekly comic strip format, it's not so bad...but think of trying to slog through 144 pages of it. After a few pages your brain is numb, your eyes get droopy, and your mind wanders to...The art, too, is so one-note and uninspired that it leaves the bulk of the page white as fresh-fallen snow.

When a book engages neither the imagination nor the eye, I just can't offer a recommendation. There are other, better things to do with your time.
