I received this book from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.
The organs and our Yeti author are back again with a new book full of hilarious situations that are super-relatable. From waking up at 3 am to tell you all about your biggest life's failures to valuing pizza over healthy foods.
The book is a mix of multi-panelled comics and one illustration comics. I quite like that the author mixed it up like this.
Most of the comics are about the organs, from the Bowels and his grumpiness and stinky farts to Heart who generally is very silly, but at times also wants to listen to Brain (on his terms though). But there are also comics with our author (the Yeti) dealing with health problems, with anxiety, and sleeping (darn that brain and waking people up in the dead of the night).
There were a lot of comics that were really relatable (like pizza is indeed better, salt on your food even if you haven't tried it yet, biting on your tongue, not falling for photoshop, why only take one pet when you can have more, and many more).
I had a big laugh at the eye roll comic, now every time I roll my eyes I see my eyeballs exercising. :P Thanks. :P
One comic was something I already saw another artist also do (the one with the language deteriorating), still funny that is apparently something more people think about.
The art is still great, it really captures the organs actions perfectly.
What more? Ah yes, a few of the comics I recognised from the author's twitter. It was fun to see them again.
All in all, I would recommend this book to everyone.

These comics are always, always 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.

'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.

These comic strips are really fun to read. The antics of Heart and Tongue are hilarious.Heart and Brain have to compliment each other at the end of the day. These strips gave me a good laugh. I look forward to read more of The Awkward Yeti comic strips.
