**I read this book for free through Netgalley, and the opinions expressed in this review are my own**

I have always been a fan of Gudetama, whether it be the anime series or books like this. Naturally, I was super excited to see this available to read for free, and I was not at all disappointed. The art style is adorable, and all the little mini plots made this book so much more enjoyable. This sweet little lazy egg is always so relatable for me, and this book was no exception. The holidays can be exhausting, but Gudetama is still mostly positive while helping others get through it. I absolutely loved this book!

This book is absolutely adorable and a very fun and short book. I've only seen Gudetama before in passing but was never actually knowing what it was. This book is beautifully illustrated and coloured graphic novel about surviving the holidays, some advice and to just take things lightly. Honestly, some of the advice that was given. by Gudetama is actually true and I could definitely learn something out of it. I really had an amazing time getting absorbed in this book as well as the different reactions that come from different characters. I'm glad I got the chance to read this book as it was really cute, fun and heartwarming.

Gudetama: Surviving the Holidays is a graphic novel that expresses the most wonderful time, or exhausting time in Gudetama's case, of the year. I find this to be a quick and heartwarming read with the great advice it offers. It is full of hilarious and appealing illustrations about Gudetama's tips and tricks on how to overcome the holiday burnout. What I appreciate is the simplicity of the colorful and unique art style. They blend in quite nicely with the scenarios Gudetama goes through when solving problems. The dialogue in each panel is direct and straightforward, making the scenarios easy to understand and has me turning page after page.

I believe the audience for this graphic novel is for everyone to enjoy, more on a focus for teens and adults. I would definitely pick up this book to read and display on the bookshelves for the holiday season..

Thank you Oni Press and NetGalley for the free copy of this book! All opinions expressed are my own.
