\n #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER \u2022 NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY USA TODAY AND THE DAILY PLANET<\/p>\n

The highly anticipated new standalone full-color graphic novel from Bryan Lee O\u2019Malley, author and artist of the hugely bestselling Scott Pilgrim graphic novel series<\/p>\n

Katie\u2019s got it pretty good. She\u2019s a talented young chef, she runs a successful restaurant, and she has big plans to open an even better one. Then, all at once, progress on the new location bogs down, her charming ex-boyfriend pops up, her fling with another chef goes sour, and her best waitress gets badly hurt. And just like that, Katie\u2019s life goes from pretty good to not so much. What she needs is a second chance. Everybody deserves one, after all\u2014but they don\u2019t come easy. Luckily for Katie, a mysterious girl appears in the middle of the night with simple instructions for a do-it-yourself do-over:
\u00a0
1. Write your mistake
2. Ingest one mushroom
3. Go to sleep
4. Wake anew
\u00a0
And just like that, all the bad stuff never happened, and Katie is given another chance to get things right. She\u2019s also got a dresser drawer full of magical mushrooms\u2014and an irresistible urge to make her life not just good, but perfect. Too bad it\u2019s against the rules. But Katie doesn\u2019t care about the rules\u2014and she\u2019s about to discover the unintended consequences of the best intentions.
\u00a0
From the mind and pen behind the acclaimed Scott Pilgrim series comes a madcap new tale of existential angst, everyday obstacles, young love, and ancient spirits that\u2019s sharp-witted and tenderhearted, whimsical and wise.<\/p>\n

Praise for Seconds
\u00a0
\u201cThe cartoonist, best known for the Scott Pilgrim series, delivers one of the most enjoyable reads I\u2019ve had all year with this magical graphic novel. I dare you to not read it all in one sitting.\u201d\u2014Whitney Matheson, USA Today
\u00a0
\u201cSeconds arrives with high expectations, and it meets them all, delivering the style and humor of [Bryan Lee] O\u2019Malley\u2019s past works with greater emphasis on mood, detail, and complex character relationships.\u201d\u2014The A.V. Club<\/p>\n

\u201cRichly imagined and vibrantly drawn, Seconds is a funny, surprising, and enchanting read.\u201d\u2014Publishers Weekly<\/p>\n

\u201cIn Seconds, Bryan Lee O\u2019Malley plays the angst of youth against the fabric of a larger epic. In doing so, he enriches both. A great ride!\u201d\u2014Guillermo del Toro<\/p>\n

\u201cBryan Lee O\u2019Malley\u2019s Seconds is adorable, haunting, funny, and beautiful. A perfect recipe for a great graphic novel.\u201d\u2014Scott McCloud, author of Understanding Comics <\/p>\n
