Book excerpt: Watching Cartoons with Boys is a collection of short stories and essays that catalogue different cartoons that have been important to the author at different stages of her life, as well as some of the relationships that have developed in parallel. It considers gendered stereotypes in Bob s Burgers, the way relationships sometimes play out like an episode of Rick and Morty, and contains plenty of adoration for Lumpy Space Princess from Adventure Time. Funny, reflective, and painfully relatable, Watching Cartoons with Boys is an engaging text from an emerging Australian writer. ""Nostalgic, clever and funny, Watching Cartoons with Boys is a reminder of all the ways that cartoons intersect with and reflect our own lives."" - Jess Gately, Underground Writers Watching Cartoons with Boys reminds me of adolescence the relief in what I have left behind, the pride in what I have overcome, and the nostalgia of that which has stuck with me along the way. It is in a word poignant. Alex Creece, Ramona Magazine
