Guts
By Raina Telgemeier
A true story from Raina Telgemeier, the #1 New York
Times bestselling, multiple Eisner Award-winning author of
Smile, Sisters,
Drama, and Ghosts!
Raina wakes up one night with a terrible upset stomach. Her mom has one, too, so it's probably just a bug. Raina eventually returns to school, where she's dealing with the usual highs and lows: friends, not-friends, and classmates who think the school year is just one long gross-out session. It soon becomes clear that Raina's tummy trouble isn't going away... and it coincides with her worries about food, school, and changing friendships. What's going on?
Raina Telgemeier once again brings us a thoughtful, charming, and funny true story about growing up and gathering the courage to face -- and conquer -- her fears.

One night Raina wakes up with a stomach ache and heads to the bathroom and sees her mom is there too. Raina and her mom both threw up ,so they think that they have Raina s little sister s stomach flu.after that Raina has to go to school .a lot of people have been having the stomach flu .One day someone at her school threw up .and Raina started to worry . She didn't want to catch it again or vomit .about half way through the book Raina is still having stomach aches but she went to the doctor and she is all fine.so she starts to go to a therapist. After that she starts to get better about getting so nervous that she thinks she has to puke.this is a great book and I rate it 5/5 stars 😁 -Pizzagirl7
Amazing @pizzagirl7!
To be honest, this book was decent. I didn't really love it as much as Raina Telgemeier's other books about her life (Smile and Sisters). It was just okay. In Guts, Raina Telgemeier tells her story about how she wakes up in the middle of the night with an upset stomach. Her mom's stomach isn't feeling too good either, so they assume it is probably just a stomach bug. When Raina returns to school, she deals with the usual at school: friends, not-friends, mean girls, classmates who think school is just one long gross-out session, etc. After a while, it becomes clear that Raina's stomach ache isn't going away and it shows with all her worries about food, school, and changing friendships. She is constantly worried about what people think of her. Will she work this problem out? I do recommend this book. As I said before, I don't think it was that good, but other people might like it. I think you would like it if you can relate to the short summery I described above. I also recommend it if you like her other books and sometimes are self-conscious. This book might help you (or anyone) understand that it's okay to be afraid sometimes and that you should try not to be judgmental.
I love it! Please read the babysiter club if you liked this book <33

this story is kinda cool even tho im a boy lol
I really liked this book a lot but in order to read it I need to be in the mood for a graphic novel which is why I give it 4 out of 5 stars. It is a great story about growing up and tackling your fears one step at a time. So it starts when Raina wakes up one day with a bad stomach ache and throws up. This leads to worries about vomit, food, school and really just growing up. In this book you learn how Raina tackled all of this and the process of her growing up. This is a great book for those who like Raina Telegemier.
this book is a true story about a girl that has so much stress, and has gut problems. the more stress, the more upset. the more upset, the more stress.
I think this is a good book, not the best one in the series but I definitely recommend the series
