Review: Gut Instincts

Are you familiar with The Awkward Yeti? It’s an online comic by Nick Seluk featuring a blue Yeti named Lars.  Seluk has started a few spin-off comics, one of which is Heart and Brain, which follows the adventures of Lars’s internal organs with the heart and brain taking the lead.  A collection of these comics has been published  as THE AWKWARD YETI PRESENTS HEART AND BRAIN: GUT INSTINCTS.

I picked up GUT INSTINCTS thinking it was a kids’ book but it’s not.  There’s nothing inappropriate in the comics, but the humor of the heart and brain fighting against each other is definitely geared towards adults.  I thoroughly enjoyed my time reading this short book and laughed out loud fairly often as I read it.  I shared a lot of the comics with Carl and we joked about several of them for days.  In other words, I loved this book and now consider myself a big fan of the comic.  I shared this panel with a lot of my friends:

I’ve picked this book up several times since I first read it.  Everyone will find something they can relate to in  GUT INSTINCTS  so I think it would make a great gift.  Grab this book when you need a laugh!

I won this book from Andrews McMeel Publishing.  I am an Indiebound Affiliate.
