Cassandra Calinová je umělkyně, která se zaměřuje na komiksy a ilustrace. Její díla čerpají z osobních zkušeností a života, přičemž s humorem a nadsázkou komentuje každodenní drobné nepříjemnosti a vlastní životní situace. Prostřednictvím svých kreseb sdílí své postřehy a často se s laskavou ironií věnuje zdánlivě nepodstatným životním peripetiím.
Komiksové stripy o introvertech, knihomolech, mileniálech, zkrátka o těch, kdo odmítají dospět, protože dospěláckej svět je tak trochu ošklivej...
Tahle knížka je o strastech mileniálského života, o škole, stresu a tunách nezdravého jídla. Ale taky o holení nohou a udržování zdravého sebevědomí. Perfektně ilustruje častý rozdíl mezi očekáváním a realitou a je ideálním dárkem pro mladou holku a vlastně kohokoli, kdo by mohl potřebovat trochu legrace a pošťouchnutí, aby dneska vyšel z domu.
