_____________________________
We all know a good boy.
He's a 'Feminist’... in his Tinder bio.
He ghosts you, but then feels bad. (For a moment.)
He’s not mansplaining, just aggressively clarifying.
And he's open to being wrong. Theoretically.
Ready to call time on rewarding those who clear the low bar of not being outwardly awful?
Awards for Good Boys explores why so-called and self-proclaimed good boys are actually not that great, and makes literal our tendency to applaud men for doing the absolute least. It will make you cry-laugh, feel validated, and help you unravel your own assumptions about what makes us good. ______________________________

Shelby and her art are extremely my shit. You need this book.
Nothing captures the stress of modern dating quite so brilliantly as Shelby Lorman’s illustrations.
A satirical look at the ways in which these so-called good boys expect to be patted on the back for doing the bare minimum ... We all mess up. The important thing is to find constructive – and ideally funny – ways to talk about it.
The book is a combination of her signature cartoons and nightmarish tales from her love life. Both will make you laugh and cringe in equal measure; I guarantee it.
Hilarious.
