I've seen Awkward Yeti comics online and loved them. This was a well done book that tells a story over a few pages.
The stories ranged from funny to the down right scary. I loved the comments added in throughout the stories, they really brought the humour.
If you're looking for something quick and funny, this is a must read.

How I Broke Up with My Colon: Fascinating, Bizarre, and True Health Stories by Nick Seluk – This comic collection is on kindle unlimited and comiXology. If you like Nick’s characters from Heart and Brain, these real life medical stories are more fun with a hefty dose of charm for our favorite cartoon body parts! Happy Reading!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC of this comic!
I love The Awkward Yeti!
I haven't read any of the previous book, but I've been following Seluk on IG for a while.
This collection of stories was great! These were real medical stories from patients and providers dramatized in the classic Awkward Yeti illustrations.
Some of these you couldnt imagine anywhere but on TV, others will make you laugh out loud.
Totally recommend!

This book was absolutely a joy to read made me realize maybe my medical stories aren't that bad (I don't have the tip of my finger, fell down a mountain, broke my ribs, and have a shunt) the pancake story was my favorite I wish this book was longer 100%

I love the Awkward Yeti. I love these funny, silly, quirky comics about the body parts that plague us, and the ridiculous things they do that no one talks about.
But of all the comics I've read, all the books they've put out, this is hands down my favorite. Rather than a collection of Nick Seluk's online comic strip, this is a series of absolutely and utterly insane true stories of people's various bizarre situations involving their own internal organs and body parts.
These are hysterically funny, completely bizarre, and often unbelievable. There were a few that I started texting my best friend about (I have planned to buy her a spleen plushie from them, if I ever see one on their store) because they were too good not to share.
If you've ever had a wonky body part, freak medical accident, or perhaps you're in constant battle with your own internal organ, this is the book for you. Or maybe it's for your friend who is constantly telling you their own crazy medical story.
Speaking of which, Nick Seluk, if you ever write another one of these, the best friend and I would like to submit our story. It could be called Three ovaries and a spleen.

'The Awkward Yeti Presents: How I Broke Up with My Colon' by Nick Seluk is an illustrated collection of stories from people illustrated including the famous internal illustrations from The Awkward Yeti.
The stories range from freakish injuries, like getting a kernel of popcorn lodged under a tongue, or getting and injury that causes someone to lose their sense of smell, to the bizarre, like a person born with internal organs in the wrong place. There are also stories of doctors and shark bites and other things.
The stories are sometimes a bit gruesome, but they are all light and most are pretty funny. The illustrations are pretty amusing, although some are a bit gross. I had a lot of fun reading this collection.
