Heart and Brain: Gut Instincts is a collection of The Awkward Yeti comics featuring different organs of the body, with the emphasis on wise, workaholic brain, carefree and easily-distracted heart, along with other characters like tongue, stomach, eyes, and gallbladder. The digital file was readable, but some panels were blurrier than others so I re-read it once published. Topics include healthy eating, exercise, work, dreams, and other workings of the body and mind. This is a short, fun book of laughs and I will continue to read more by The Awkward Yeti in the future.

Note: I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley. I was not compensated in any other fashion for the review and the opinions reflected below are entirely my own. Special thanks to the publisher and author for providing the copy.

'Heart and Brain: Gut Instincts' by Nick Seluk is an Awkward Yeti collection. I love this comic strip for its humor and wise insight into how we humans work.

The comic strip is primarily Heart and Brain, but this time around they are joined by other members of the human body. We have tongue wanting to eat anything, while stomach complains about being full. Throughout, irritable bowels shows up to voice its complaint. Mainly, Heart wants what it wants now, and Brain wants to be productive and pragmatic.

This is a really funny and insightful collection. How many times have I wanted that bowl of ice cream only to have my stomach complain about it later, and the war between my own heart and brain is as real as it is portrayed here (although perhaps with less butterflies). This is a funny collection of over 60 comic strips.

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.

Awesome and hilarious as always; my favorite Awkward Yeti, Nick Seluk, has mad me giggle with glee! Warning! You should only read this book if you have a sense a humor and no preexisting medical conditions that preclude you from busting a gut. Otherwise, I highly recommend this book!
