I Can't Stop Thinking About Horses and Sex

A wildly candid, funny, and emotionally raw comic memoir from the visionary creator of Tuca & Bertie and Bojack Horseman.

In I Can’t Stop Thinking About Horses and Sex, acclaimed cartoonist and animator Lisa Hanawalt returns to her comics roots with a vibrant collection of deeply personal, genre-blurring comic strips and artwork.

Part memoir, part visual diary, and part surreal meditation on obsession and desire, the book follows Hanawalt as she reflects on a lifetime shaped by horses, relationships, anxiety, lust, heartbreak, and the strange emotional terrain of adulthood.

Through lush colors, energetic linework, and her unmistakable blend of absurdity and vulnerability, Hanawalt explores everything from caring for a sick horse and navigating major breakups to confronting fears about motherhood and embracing the messy realities of intimacy and selfhood.

Honest, awkward, horny, tender, and hilariously self-aware, the collection captures the chaotic interior life of someone trying to understand connection, identity, and desire while remaining unapologetically weird.

Both deeply relatable and delightfully eccentric, I Can’t Stop Thinking About Horses and Sex is an intimate exploration of platonic and romantic fixation, emotional survival, and the lifelong bond between humans and animals—all told with Hanawalt’s trademark humor and emotional honesty.
