While having a body is not the most enjoyable aspect of growing older, Nick Seluk does a good job of making you empathize with the struggles your heart, brain, stomach, and gall bladder face. While the plushes he sells may be a bit much, many readers will find something to smile about in this collection.

I love these comics! They're so short and adorable. I follow the Awkward Yeti's Facebook page and love seeing them on my newsfeed from, so when I saw there was a collection of these comics in a book, I had to read it! These personified body parts are so silly that the book will have you laughing the whole way through. I think this concept is just fantastic because these anecdotes are so human that everyone can relate to something in here.

'Heart and Brain: Body Language: An Awkward Yeti Collection' by Nick Seluk is a collection of more of the popular, and right on target, comics.

Heart and Brain are joined by other organs like Bowels, Muscle and Tongue. Tongue has a lisp and is usually in conflict with the stomach. Brain likes to think late into the night. Bowels is mostly stinky and irritable. Heart is just plain lovable with his carefree whims and passions.

This series works because the humor is so dead on. I know my brain turns on at night when I need to sleep and my tongue craves things my stomach shouldn't have. This is a great series.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Andrews McMeel Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.

I love the Heart and Brain series and this was no exception!

Funny stuff as usual from The Awkward Yeti. Always entertaining online, and now entertaining in book form. Nice

A good collection of relatable things that show how our innards will communicate if they could speak.

I'm in love of Heart and Brain!!! they are great and the situations are so comical and so close!!! I never get tired of them!!!

I love all of the Heart and Brain cartoons. They are so funny and somehow very accurate to how things work between your heart and your brain!

The Heart and Brain series explores the emotions that the heart, brain, and other organs struggle with in everyday life including anxiety, fitness, overeating, budgeting and more.

This happens to be the third book in a series of comic strip collections that Nick Seluk aka "The Awkward Yeti" has created. What I looked forward to the most was that it wasn't one whole story but a page at a time of humor that would get me smiling just like Sarah Anderson was able to do for me in Adulthood is a Myth.

Body Language started off rocky for me but then there was a clever page about carrying self doubt to a goal and after that a want vs. need page got me chuckling. I was hooked.

I absolutely loved the dynamic between Heart and Brain. I thought Heart was hilarious and incredibly accurate although I find it strange yet funny that he is so conceited. I must be missing something obvious about his personality there and how it pertains to the heart. The brain on the other hand kind of reminds me of Dexter from Dexter's Laboratory (it might just be the glasses) without the whole evil thing going on.

It was so interesting to see how Heart was like a child and Brain an adult. The heart was like an impetuous child that was all about himself, with a carefree attitude, and OH MY.... I JUST FIGURED IT OUT... He had a butterfly he would chase and in one case the butterfly helped destroy a budget plan that Brain came up. The butterfly must mean like butterflies in your stomach or chest in this case. I miss things okay!?

Anyways, it was interesting how Heart clearly had flaws but it took me a while to see the logical Brain's faults who you would think wouldn't at least from an at a glance perspective. In one case, Brain wakes up this Yeti in the middle of the night to tell him things he had to think of right now. Also, there are moments he just thinks of his mortality and lets Heart get away with some stuff. This is such a cleverly written book that it took me a second to fully realize why the characters acted the way they did.

My favorite pages had to do with exercise, particularly running. There was one that had the Awkward Yeti saying he wanted to be healthy by punishing himself for being unhealthy with running. That sounded so eerily familiar from my daily life.

There were some great moments with other characters including a hilarious one with Muscle after working out and Stomach getting angry with tongue about his food choices. There was also Bowels which had a couple of good moments. It took me a little while to get his personality but I got it - angry theorist grandpa. What else would you expect from your bowels?

The only things I didn't enjoy or was meh about would have to be first of all that it took a while to get into the type of humor and some of the pages were a miss for me. I wasn't dying laughing at everything which is perfectly reasonable but I wasn't overly enthused by everything as a whole. There were clever and funny moments but like with everything in comedy things either hit or miss depending upon delivery and the audience for example I'm not into that one fart joke that happened. It happens.

Body Language cleverly shows readers a mirror into their own lives from the perspective of the heart, brain, and other organs. I loved the two main characters, heart and brain, and would enjoy reading more of their adventures in the future.

This book focuses on Heart and Brain. Heart is spontaneous and happy while Brain is logical and rational. It sounds like a good set of characters that could show some funny altercations but that wasn't the case, at least not for me.

I couldn't get into it and had to give up in the middle of the book. I didn't find it funny.

I had already seen some of the author's strips online and expected more from this graphic novel.

I have always loved heart and brain and this new adventure made me love them even more, I really loved heart's wisdom and the way he goes through life, epic!

Love these! I first enjoyed the Heart and Brain comics a couple of years ago when my gallbladder threw a fit and had to be removed. These are a fun commentary on everyday experiences of any human with a body.

I absolutely adored this book. It was funny, relatable, and so much more. It's amazing how so much could be said with just pictures. This is the type of book I think anyone could read and enjoy.

I wonder whether other publishing houses are jealous that Andrews McMeel has cornered on this market on fantastic comics like this one? I read Lady Stuff from them a couple weeks ago, and this weekend I read Heart and Brain and (one of!) The Oatmeal's new books. I am fortunate in that they often allow me advanced copies, which was the case here. I suppose if other houses have book envy right now, it's likely over Rupi Kaur.

I haven't had the pleasure of knowing Heart and Brain since the very beginning but once I discovered this comic that manages to be both lighthearted and slice rather deeply, I've latched on the same way I do to my morning coffee. Heart and Brain, along with a steadily increasing cast of other organs, discuss their daily travails and insights, always from their own perspectives.

Although I've always love both Heart and Brain, I think my newest favourite is Guts. That last comic above is one I should have as a print on my wall. If you've encountered this gang before, you may have previously seen some of the content before; if you haven't enjoyed these adventures, this is an excellent place to start. There were (less than a handful) of comics that I didn't really understand but who knows - could've been my Brain at the time.

Heart, Brain and the Awkward Yeti are always brilliant!! This book will make a great gift for anyone!! The characters are absolutely adorable, and have a way of breaking down life in honest, insightful, and humorous ways!!

Whenever I need a pick me up, I go and read some Heart and Brain comics. For me, they're always a win. This new collection isn't my favorite of the three out but it was still funny. Heart and Brain never fail to make me laugh. Also, so many of these comics are super relatable!

I never get tired of the Heart's shenanigans, the Brain's desperate attempts at order, or the hilarious relatability of Tongue and his cravings. Anyone who's got a human body can probably get a laugh out of at least a few of these, so I'd definitely recommend looking up the webcomic or picking up a copy of this collection.

The Awkward Yeti is always fun. Seluk somehow manages to strike a great balance between silliness, sarcasm, and sincerity. A perfect look at the contradictions inherent in being human (or, you know, a big blue yeti).

I need these collections to never end.. I loveeedd the heart and brain adventures!!! and I like that stomach comes too. stomach: I'm going to eat that cow , Heart: we cant eat that whole cow , Brain: remember how full you got last time... stomach: don't care doing itt...


this story is sassy and funny. and I could screen shot all my favorites but I would never stop. so buy the entire book. if you buy an ebook get Aldiko for ease of reading ...this would stink as a kindle.

I’ve been reading Awkard Yeti comics for about a year on Nick Seluk’s website. His comics feature Lars, the yeti, and his zany internal organs. Each organ has its own personality and affect the way Lars interacts with the world. Lars deals with coffee addiction and social anxiety; his Heart is whimsical and his Brain is pragmatic (but is often swayed by his Heart). The whole lot is super relatable.

While reading Heart and Brain: Body Language I found that though Seluk posts a fair amount of his comics online, they’re not all on the website. The book includes quite a few “bonus” comics and I appreciate Seluk’s use of primary “crayola box” colors (I don’t know how else to describe them). The color pallet is simple and bright, which makes even the difficult/frightening situation easy to read.

A number of the comics are single-pane, which I tend to be a fan of. Besides Seluk, Wiley Miller (the artists behind Non Sequitor comics) and Dan Piraro (author of Bizarro! comics) all do a pretty good job of making me chuckle in the 15 seconds it takes to read the panel. That’s what I call talent. If you click through the links to the other comic websites, I’m sure you’ll realize that my sense of humor is pretty strange. Still, I think this Awkwrd Yeti Collection will appeal to most people. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the collection relied so heavily on the stuff that's online for free. If you want to keep his work in a nicely bound book though, then this is perfect.

These comics are always, <b>always</b> funny. And often times, they're poignant, and will strike just the right note in whatever body organ you choose, but certainly your heart.

I don't know if I'm just going through a lot at the moment?? But I feel like this one was even more poignant than the previous collections. And I kind of wish they'd add overactive tear ducts to the organs featured in these stories.
