This was so much fun at it was very cute. I really loved the simplicity in the illustrations, less is often more! The humor is right up my ally and I still think about this book to this day.

this book was extremely cute and i loved it so much! the drawings are so simplistic yet they speak numbers, and it motivated me so much! i let my mom read it and she also loved it!

This is such an adorable little book! The illustrations are so cute and the messages are totally relatable and inspiring. It's wonderful to just keep nearby to open every now and then for a little boost!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for granting me free access to the advanced digital copy of this book.

Humans are complex with complex emotions. this was a beautiful way to show that with such a cute comic style book!

Dive into the delightful world of Beth Evans with "Thinking of You (but not like in a weird creepy way)," a heartwarming collection of humorous and validating comics. As a devoted follower of Evans's Instagram, this compilation felt like a reunion with an old friend – familiar, relatable, and filled with the charming wit that defines her work.

In this comic journey, Evans reintroduces us to her lovable, amorphous protagonist, navigating the highs and lows of online dating, quirky social scenarios, and the occasional dance with anxiety. The comics resonate with a perfect balance of humor and compassion, showcasing Evans's unique ability to capture the nuances of the human experience.

What makes "Thinking of You" special is its warmth and timeliness. The comics provide a comforting escape into a world where imperfections are celebrated, and it's okay not to have everything figured out. Evans's humor is sweet, genuine, and a reminder that we're all navigating life's quirks together.

Consider "Thinking of You (but not like in a weird creepy way)" your go-to companion for cozy evenings, whether you're a seasoned fan or a newcomer to Evans's work. The collection is a treasure trove of relatable moments, inviting readers to chuckle and find solace in the shared experiences of being human.

An enjoyable collection of optimistic webcomics and blob characters going through assorted social situations.

More self-help than comic. This book is at times adorable and at times insightful. Kudos to the author for making these two emotions stand together without overpowering each other.

This was a delightful exploration of the complexities of human connection. Through her charming illustrations and witty narrative, Evans reminds us that it's perfectly normal to have someone constantly on your mind, as long as it's not in a bizarre or uncomfortable manner. This lighthearted and relatable book is a delightful read for anyone who has experienced the rollercoaster of emotions that come with thoughts of a special someone.

When I started reading this book I was having a bad day, but the positive messages and overall messages of this comic made me felt better instantly. I felt like I was being spoken to directly and felt seen, a rare thing to find in a random comic. It's one of those books you can pick up randomly to any page for a pick me up and I'll be thinking about this one for awhile.

Beth Evans has a great mind and I love her comics. There are so many short scenes that I read with this story that I thought, "Well, this is me. The feelings are real and there!".

I enjoyed the read and loved the telling of what she has gone through from panic attacks to how strong she is in the face of obstacles and the world.

This was a cute collection of comics that will provide comfort to the readers. In this age of increased importance on mental health, this book will be a great addition to bookshelves!

This is a 5☆.
It's the best self-help book I have ever read. I love this book more than every book I have read. This is a perfect self-help book. When a person needs someone to tell them they've got this, you can do this, but unfortunately have no one, this book is going to tell you and cheer you. It will make you feel like you're not alone. This book is so therapeutic. It's going to help you deal with whatever you are dealing with in your life. This book is like a cheerleader. It will cheer you up.
Beth Evans did such a great job. I am looking forward to buying this one whenever the hardcover will be available♡

Thanks, NetGalley for the e-ARC of this book. This will not affect my review.

This was a pretty good graphic novel to read. It wasn’t what I expected it to be, but that was not a bad thing. Each strip took a look at different issues and assured the reader it was going to be okay. Most people will have a good time reading this graphic novel.

“Thinking of You (but not like in a weird creepy way): A Comic Collection“ by Beth Evans is a really uplifting series of comics with one goal in mind: to make the reader feel seen and virtually hugged.

Told with a series of blob artwork, which is pretty endearing, the author breaks the book up into sections based on going through anxiety, hard times, stress, etc. The message is pretty clear: you’ve got this. Reading it over and over felt like an affirmation from a friend.

This would be a great gift to get somebody who is struggling, and just needs a kind word. The tone and affirmations of this book can make a difference in somebody’s life. I really enjoyed it.

🦖 A refreshing set of quotes, observations and words of care ‘surrounded’ by truly adorable art by Beth Evans. There are reminders of how great you are, encouragements not to give up, words of care after the loss of a loved one and simple hugs from cute but slightly weird-looking characters that just make you smile.

This is not really a book, but a collection of quotes. I am not a big fan of motivational messages myself, although I can see their use and advantage.
The art is cute, but did not interest me in the way I hoped. I always try out graphic novels, because I enjoy most of them immensely. This particular topic was not for me, but I think most others would find this a good gift!
It is not a large volume, and I cannot really elaborate further than the clear title does.

I wish I had this a year ago when I was feeling really blue but better late than never.

I feel this should be picked up whenever you feel down but in bite sizes. The illustrations are adorbs and the messages are so like a warm hug you need to lift your spirits.

Reading it at one go felt a bit much but stopping and reading throughout the day made it better.

Love it!

Thank you for the arc!
This was such an enjoyable experience!!! I don't usually reach for self help books or anything like that but this was so lovely. The adorable illustrations gave me so much serotonin!!! The only issue is I think it did get a bit repetitive, I think this would be a read one page a day kind of book! I think this be such a great gift for a friend or family member who needs a pick me up :]

This is a comic collection of short panel daily affirmations. This is another one of those where I think as one collection the book loses half of its meaning and is much better read a panel a day. It’s not so much funny as endearing with how the characters are reminded of each other through the day or how they let them know I’m thinking of them or lets them know that it’s OK to be grumpy because they are loved anyway. Overall, I think this is well done but I also think it’s too much of a good thing. I would rather read this in a daily comic then in a collection.
