Reality really bites. GroomsDay is the story of Seven, a job-hunting college grad down on her luck. She replies to an ad for a dog groomer job, and things start looking up. Until crazy dog owners, an unscrupulous boss, and the snobby competition try to step in on her turf! But when Seven spies goons making shady deals, and dogs start getting mysteriously sick, she suspects there’s more to the underbelly of grooming than undercutting the competition. She’ll have to clean up more than dirty paws to ensure the dogs in her ‘hood stay safe. Fun and fast, GroomsDay is the illustrated Diary of a Wimpy Kid / Best in Show mash-up that job-hunting young adults have been waiting for.

Humorous, witty and entertaining! A light hearted view of a person that loves dogs and has a different slant on life...a dry wit and great sense of humor!I plan to buy additional books for everyone I know as birthday and Christmas presents.
I read this soon after reading "The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian" by Sherman Alexie. I'd read that Amy Sedaris found "Absolutely True..." laugh out loud funny. While I thought Alexie's book was witty, and at times brutal in its honesty, I never laughed out loud. On the other hand, GroomsDay, another young adult novel set in the PNW and written as a memoir, did have me laughing out loud throughout. Maybe it's just my sense of humor. Or that this book is a workplace comedy as opposed to a coming of age story. Seven is an interesting protagonist because it may seem that she's getting pushed around by bosses and co-workers, but actually she stands up for herself at every turn. Worth a read, especially for dog lovers.
I've already read this book through a couple times because it makes me laugh out loud! If you: (1) ever had a crappy boss; (2) like to route for the underdogs (ha!) in life; or (3) love dogs, you will enjoy this story with hilarious illustrations.
