review 1: Branching out from the relationship comics of her first book, "Will You Still Love Me If I Wet The Bed?," Liz Prince once again captures the tiny moments in life that usually get lost but deserve to be remembered. Haircuts, playing with cats, stealing kisses, and going to the library are all fodder for her lovely strips. Her artwork is a little bit more polished this time around without losing its minimalist charms and her writing is a little more direct and gag-y (in the one-liner sense, not the dry heave kind of way). Though it may not be as thematically focused as her previous book, "Delayed Replays" is still vintage Liz.
review 2: This is a fun little collection of autobiographical webcomic vignettes that I found very humorous and quite relatable. Prince is... more great at highlighting the absurdity in day to day life, including cats, libraries, geekery, injuries, dating, ice-cream treats, among other daily wonders. I think I read somewhere that Prince's art has been compared to a cross between Jeffrey Brown and James Kochalka, and that's accurate, but I think her sense of humor applies more closely to my own life, and I can't help but picture episodes from my own life illustrated so cutely. I will definitely continue to follow her work. less
