Home Grown Worries by Alex Donahue - Episode 196

  • Summary

  • This week we discuss Home Grown Worries by Alex Donahue. We reviewed Alex’s other book, Leon & Chris, back in Episode 114 in 2022; he’s hoping that this is an improvement on that one as this is its spiritual successor. In turn, this episode is our spiritual successor to Episode 114.

    Once again, Donahue's book has great art for kids and it seems like he actually took some of our advice from last time; gone are nearly all of the mechanical writing errors and tedium! While we didn't feel the core story was very captivating, we're impressed with Donahue's masochism. Never have we had an author ask us to review their work - and go through with it - twice. If anything, this is a sign that he has the fortitude to keep refining his work and succeed as an author.

    Musings and derailments in this episode include: the bounds of furry art, Castlevania, and singing the fake song in the book.

    In addition to our usual barnyard language, today’s episode discusses violence and bullying between adolescents.
