This was absolutely fantastic. I loved all the illustrations that were on each page. And the advice was pretty solid too. It was a quick read but despite that, I really enjoyed reading it.

This book is so cute and fun! Katie Vaz has given us a fun little how-to guide for all those moments when we’re trapped in a situation with *gasp* another human, and have to find a way out without socializing. It’s a wonderful addition to the introvert cartoon collection.

Thank you NetGalley for an eARC in exchange for an honest review. I enjoyed the humor of this book and the illustrations. Some of it felt too random or repetitive, but overall very enjoyable.

As an introvert, I was immediately drawn to this book's title. If anyone spends too much time inside their heads coming up with hypothetical escape strategies from social situations, it would definitely be introverts like me. But I never knew it was something I needed, as I've never seen a beautifully illustrated book offering advice like this. At first glance, my interest was instantly piqued and I had to click to see what was inside. And I was not disappointed!
The Escape Manual for Introverts offers advice on how to escape several social situations with friends, relatives, strangers, you name it. And while much of the advice is humorous, I could relate to it all. I might have even used some of this advice already!
I love the concept of this book and I am in awe of how cute the drawings are. I believe this book would be a great gift for your introverted friend or anyone who experiences social awkwardness from time to time. Cute, funny read, for sure.

As an introvert I found this to be really cute, humorous, and filled with a handful of good excuses to get out of those random awkward encounters!
It unfortunately just wasn't that memorable and only took about 10 minutes, if that, to read.
Thank you to the publishers who provided me with an ARC of this book through NetGalley!

It's hard for me to review this book because the netgalley ebook I downloaded was not fully readable, but from what I could see see, it's amusing.

The Escape Manual for Introverts is a collection of illustrations empathizing with the plight of the introvert stuck in prolonged social situations. Author Katie Vaz recommends a variety of escape solutions in multiple scenarios. If you enjoy illustrations, graphic novels, or graphic memoirs, you’ll enjoy this little book!

Totally loved the art inside the book
Definitely managed to relate to a lot of the scenarios inside the book since I am an ambivert. But few of the scenarios I couldn’t relate to the fear of it due to not being 100% introvert. But could understand the logic of it
