Julie Houts has cultivated a devoted following as "Instagram's favourite illustrator" (Vogue) by lampooning the conflicting messages and images women consume and share with the world every day. A collection of darkly comic illustrated essays, Literally Me chronicles the daily exploits of "slightly antisocial heroines" (Refinery29) in vivid, excruciatingly funny detail, including: the beauty routine of a deranged bride who aspires to be "truly without flaws" on her wedding day, what happens when Kylie Jenner has an existential crisis and can no longer "step out", a journey to Coachella by the Four Horsewomen of the Apocalypse, the true dating confessions of a fembot, the terrifying description for Alice Staunch's book How to be the Perfect Feminist, the diary of Fiddle Ficus, a tree that lives inside a CÉLINE store, and much more. Julie's singular voice and beautiful illustrations reveal the truth about the absurdity of life in the social media age: the line between becoming a total `Girlboss' and a 21st-century American Psycho is razor-thin.
