What our readers think
Readers find this title amusing and relatable. It is hilarious and easy to read. However, the formatting on Scribd is not ideal, making the small text at the end unreadable. Overall, it is a funny book worth checking out.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Hilarious and easy to read while I can relate a lot :D
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Her story was amusing and mostly I could relate to it! Janeeeee you made it great!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Unfortunately, it didn't format well for Scribd. It was tiny in comparison to the screen and wouldn't let you zoom in. The small text at the end of each is nigh unreadable, even straining. And some skits are too. Really funny otherwise. I'll definitely be looking her up elsewhere.

Introduction
Hello! Welcome friend! Welcome to Success Is 90% Spite, a collection of popular and exclusive comics from the webcomic The Pigeon Gazette!
But there are literally no pigeons in here, you, a pigeon enthusiast, mutter as you flip through the pages. It’s just some person doing random things . . .
Exactly! That’s because we are the pigeons, don’t you see? We bobble our way through our daily lives, jostling for crumbs of that happiness pie, dodging traffic, sometimes pooping where we shouldn’t . . .
Humanity: We’re just a flock of pigeons.
That’s why this book is not about literal birds and more the swash-buckling, mundane adventures of a metaphorical bird—yours truly.
Is this going to get weird? I’m not going to lie; I was really sleep-deprived while drawing a few of these. All those years watching anime do not do the subconscious any favors either, let me tell you.
Will it teach me success? Boy will it. Not by example of course, but you will find rich documentation of what not to do,
