For those unfamiliar with Catana Comics, it’s a web comic about the artist and her relationship with her boyfriend. It’s another series that regularly makes its rounds on social media, which I imagine is where most people have seen it.

To say that this comic is sweet is an understatement. It is 100% relationship cheese that will be either #couplegoals or gag inducing depending on the audience. It’s clear that Catana and John are very much in love and they’re extremely cute together.

The comics, like the art, are simple. The title pretty much sums up the entire series in general as each strip is like a small snippet of life in a long term relationship. Fans of the comic series will probably love the collection, naturally; however for myself as a casual reader that appreciates seeing the occasional strip show up on my feed found the collection overall to be alright. Even a hopeless romantic like me can get tired of the overload of relationship fluff.

It’s good if you don’t expect too much from it, but at the same time I don’t feel compelled to read more.

Very cute. Very twee. Ultimately enjoyable. I've followed @catanacomics for a while so I was familiar with most of these. I enjoyed seeing more of the older comics, but ultimately would have liked more new stuff.

A sweet, simple and absolutely relatable book made up of the little moments that mean everything in a relationship. While the drawings are deceptively simple they message they convey is absolutely clear, needing only the most basic of captions or descriptions. I defy anyone reading not to find themselves chuckling as they pick out the things that translate to their own romantic experiences. This book is truly a universal read.

Please follow me on my blog :) Review originally posted on Vellum Voyages (www.vellumvoyages.com)


I've seen some of these comics floating around the internet and when I got an opportunity to read them in a whole collection, I seized it!
This is a very very cute representation of Catana and John's (her boyfriend) daily life, love and relationship. It's mainly cute little stories of their bond with each other and you can tell they are very much a young couple in love and totally in sync with one another.

Read it for some cute relationship goals and all the warm fuzzies of being in love :)

*Thank-you Catana Chetwynd, Netgalley & Andrews McMeel Publishing for the ARC.

I love this adorable web comic, it is so relate-able because this is totally stuff I have done to poor JT a lot. Except he is not a beardy-face like John is, which is how I like it.

It was such a cute little book!! I loved the drawings, and I found some drawings very relatable. A very quick read, and a perfect one if you need some cuteness in your life!

I have been a huge follower of Catana Comics on Instagram for some time now, so when I so that they were doing a book, I just had to read it. I mostly currently plan to purchase a copy for myself and probably several others for gifting. Their comics are real and relatable in a very loving and unique way. It shows a healthy quirky relationship. She has a very distinctive art style that I was immediately drawn to. It is the perfect balance of sweet, funny, and personable. I always look forward to each new comic she releases. Even though there was only a few that I hadn't seen before, I still loved seeing them all together as a collection and sort of like a progression throughout their life. I have nothing but love for this book!

I've been a fan of Catana's series for a while and have followed her wherever I can. She's an artist to watch. The drawings may be simplistic but they're very stylized and adorable. The best part is her writing. The way that she captures the little funny and sweet bits of her relationship always warms the heart. They're honestly pretty safe for kids although I'd say, interest-wise, I'd probably go tweens and up. There are some sexual connotations but that's as far as it goes. Honestly, this is an author and artist that I love and can't wait to see what else she comes up with!

I would like to thank the publisher, author, and Netgalley for providing me with a copy in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for the early reading of this book. Will publish May 15, 2018. 3.5 stars

Sweet little graphic book expressing all renditions of 'love bites' between two people. The author Catana and her paramour, John, started these cute comics as an expression of love between them, then decided to take them public.

Centering on two young people in the throes of love, the comic characters show the little things that make them happy.

I really loved Little Moment of Love. Catana Chetwynd shows relationship is a truthful light engaging the reader. "He I do That!" " That's totally me!" These are things I said over and over reading this book. Funny, insightful and light-hearted, this book of comics is delightful and a great read.

I like seeing these cartoons online, and now I get to see what I missed as they are gathered into a book. I love these cartoon because they remind me of my relationship, even though the roles are switched. I would be the guy and Josh would be the girl. I think everyone can find something of themselves in these strips. Plus, the warm fuzzy feeling it gives the reader is an added bonus. If you are having a down day and need a pick-me-up, pick up this book and gloom-be-gone.

I follow Catana on Facebook so I was excited to get this book. I liked the new comics which have not been posted previously as well as the ones I'd seen before. This book is so sweet and would be a great gift to couples on anniversaries, engagements or weddings.

I follow Catana on Facebook. Many days I annoy my husband by sending him screen shots of the days comic, because they so perfectly capture our relationship. We will be married 25 years this fall. I was ecstatic when I heard Catana was doing a book. I am definitely purchasing a copy for my collection and some for gifts.

I've previously seen these cute comics on the internet and they always felt relatable with my significant other. When I saw there was a BOOK based on this cute couple, I knew I had to read it!

I've been in a terrible book slump and this was just what I needed to cheer me up! It's a quick read, it's adorable, it's funny, it's relatable, and well... it's everything I hope to be and share with my significant other. This book will make a great gift!

This collection makes my millennial heart happy! I've seen enough interactions of my friends in relationships to know just how true to life these little vignettes are; I truly see one of my best friends and her fiancé in a number of these comics.

I love Catana's adorably sweet comics. They're the kind that make you want to snuggle the ones you love closer and tell them how good they are.

I love seeing Catana Comics on Facebook so when Netgalley had the ebook, I was so excited! These comics are just darling and sweet. A reminder of how great life can be when people just get you. I loved revisiting comics that I had already seen and reading new ones!
