I’ve been following Catana Comics on Instagram for some months now and I always looked forward to which snippet of her life she’d share next. Perhaps it’s because of this that I found this collection a bit lacking. Many of the comics in this book are ones I’ve seen already and I didn’t feel like I was reading anything new. However, Catana’s day to day life with John is still adorable and heartwarming because she focuses on the little things that make life sweet with a loved one. Little Moments of Love is the perfect title for this collection because it is exactly that. It’s filled with funny, relatable moments that make you smile and just appreciate love for what it is.

I received a copy of this from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This was such a fun and adorable read. I couldn't wipe the smile off my face while I was reading it even though I'm forever alone and couldn't find myself in most of these. It's great to see their everyday little exchanges of love and to see how happy they make each other. I've seen these comics around internet and always chuckled while reading them so it made me really happy to get e-arc of this cute collection and I would be lying if I said I didn't google them the second I finished reading it. I really enjoyed and would recommend it to anyone looking for a romantic quick read

I seen some of these comics before online - mostly on Buzzfeed. This book was a collection, almost all of which I've never seen before. The art style is super cute, and I really enjoy it, and the subject is really cute too - little relationship moments. Its a cute, fast read, and great if you like this sort of thing.

Get ready to get overloaded with "wov" from this internet collection of cartoons from Catana. For thos who follow her, and love her, this is a great collection. Obviously she has a loyal following, who loves how she fawns over the boyfriend.

But that is all she does, fawn over her boyfriend. A WHOLE book of cartoons of her doing that. I mean, I like cookies as much as the next person, but can't eat a whole box of them.

I guess I am just a cynical old bitch, who has been around the block too many times. I had a hard time finding the humor of these strips, after the same things is said over and over again, how much they both love each other. Great, move on please.

I did find one that made me laugh, below. After that, I just kept looking for one more, and didn't find any.

This book is not for me. I have a feeling it is for young women in love for the first time, in a serious relationship.

Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.

I've been following Catana Comics for a while online, and if there is any one webcomic that so commonly perfectly depicts my relationship with my significant other, it's this one. Catana manages to draw such precious little scenes that I genuinely think almost anyone who's ever been in, or is currently in, a happy and healthy relationship can relate to, whether it's missing your significant other as soon as they leave, or the rush of happy emotions that hits when they do that one little thing they know you love, like making you coffee before you wake or bringing home burritos. ❤

Thank you to Andrews McMeel for the ARC in exchange for an honest review!

One of the cutest comics is now finally available in a collection that's absolutely perfect to read snuggled up with one's partner (that, and to give as a gift to the love of your life)

I've been a huge fan of Catana since I first discovered the comics several months ago. I was SO excited when I heard a book was coming out and immediately added it to my wish list. I couldn't wait to read it.

As someone who has read almost all of her comics, I have to say -- this book did not disappoint at all. I loved every single page! It is a fantastic mix of old favorites from the Instagram and new comics that made me laugh and warmed my heart. The saddest part was when it ended - I easily could have read something twice as long. I know I'll revisit this many times in the years to come and can't wait to buy a hard copy in May.

Disclosure: I received a free copy of this e-book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This was seriously just so cute. I love these comics whenever I see them pop up on Facebook, and this collection did not disappoint. Highly recommend! I screen shotted a bunch of pages just to show my boyfriend too.

Traitor Born is the second novel in the Secondborn trilogy by Amy A. Bartol. I’ve been anxious to get my hands on this novel ever since I ended the first one. Bartol has a way of writing that keeps you on the edge of your seat, and craving to learn what is going to happen next.
This is a dystopian novel; where society demands that every firstborn has two children; the first is obviously the firstborn, they inherit their parent’s titles, jobs, and everything else. The second child is called the secondborn, and they get the short end of the stick, to put it lightly. Depending on what their designation is, they’re either treated as the equivalent of slaves or indentured servants for their whole lives, or they’re sent off to a war they likely won’t survive. Our main character, Roselle St. Sismode is a secondborn sword; meaning she was one of the children designated for war.
I’m so happy that I finally got my hands on this novel. I’ve been wondering what was going to happen next to Roselle. I’ll admit that over the course of a novel she had really grown on me, and now I feel that way even more. Traitor Born easily held up to my expectations for it, even surpassing them in some areas.
Roselle has been a puppet for her whole life; everyone involved with her has had their own agenda for her and their own motivations for treating her certain ways. The problem is she’s aware of it, and she’s never been content to play along. Her mother’s viciousness becomes even more apparent in this novel (anyone else hate her as much as I do?), as does the grief Roselle suffers from.
I love Roselle’s character; she’s so fierce and determined and so very stubborn. I’m not sure everyone could go through what she has and survive, let alone be mentally intact. It’s hard not to be impressed with that, and her fighting skills are also noteworthy (I know she keeps giving credit to her training here, but I think it has more to do with her determination and will to live).
There were times during this read that I was particularly reminded of the Hunger Games. The tournament that was the backdrop for a lot of scenes in this novel sounds almost exactly like the games played (with the major exception being that everyone playing is more or less there voluntarily). I was okay with the reminder however, as it’s a great series. Plus Bartol works really hard to make her series distinct from the other, so I don’t think the similarities were intended to be theft.
I think my only real complaint about this novel was the cliffhanger. As a rule I don’t love them, though I obviously understand their purpose. I don’t mind authors that leave the door open, to ensure that we’ll come back for more. But authors that set their fans up for months of agonizing wait? A little harsh. But I’ll take a great book with a cliffhanger over anything else any day of the week.
On the whole I found this to be a pretty emotional book. I don’t mean that Roselle was moping around or constantly expressing her feelings to us; I mean that this novel made me feel emotional. The breakneck pace at times was terrifying, and at more than one occasion I felt hurt and angry for Roselle. It’s hard not to get wrapped up in a story like this.
I can’t wait for the next novel to release. I just have to see what happens next to Roselle and all of her friends. Plus I’d like to see what changes are made to the world, by the time the series ends. There has to be some sort of reform, right? Here’s hoping!

Such cute comics! I love the drawing style and the little stories are adorable, touching, funny and relatable.

Hmmm... I expected a lot more from this book. I smirked heartily once (with him 'showing her off') and that was about it for emotional response. Instead, even if I've been through what the book intends to portray on more than one occasion, I found it very false - while I shouldn't be turning to this kind of book looking for realism, I saw how unrealistic the whole thing is. This is a world with no burst pipes, no weird friends, no time pressures, (no periods, to be blunt) - and no work to ever worry about. It's one thing to be all smug about your romantic sentiment, but it would have meant a lot more to me if it was shown in an against-the-odds, despite-everything, lifelike scenario. Also, the artwork is far too naff.

Loved this super cute collection of random comics about being in love and spending time with your soulmate. This would make a great Valentine's Day gift.

This collection of sketches is cute, but nothing special and the oversimplified art in many instances failed to help deliver the humor in the scene. The original spirit and intentions were good, the result fell short of the expected outcome.

Already a fan of Catana Comics, this collection of Catana's LITTLE MOMENTS OF LOVE really captures some of her best comics to date, as well as some new ones I'd not yet seen but really enjoyed. Her comic's are relatable to those of us in a long term relationship with the perfect person for us and are adorable.

Review to come in May on all sources mentioned in my profile.

I received this book from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review!

This just looked too adorable, too cute, and I just had to read it. Plus I always love reading about cute couples doing cute things.

I believe I may have read a few of these comics before, her artstyle seems familiar as are a few of the comics I read! No clue where I found them, maybe Twitter.

This comic tells us of the daily life of Catana and her boyfriend and how much they love each other. It was really way too adorable and cute, but at times I couldn't help but laugh at a few scenes. They really are so sweet together.

Not only that, there were also quite a few things that were relatable/recognisable to me. Like the buttsense (a very very important sense to have), but also stealing his clothes, having to ask him to bend down so I can kiss him (we have a 32/33cm difference). And also things like when we first started dating and how it is now after years are things I also do/wonder about/makes me happy. I just love it while reading books/comics that I can say: OMG we do the same thing! OMG that is the same for me!. :) It definitely makes me love something even more.

The art is the only thing I am not sure about. Not saying it is bad! Not at all, but, arghh, I am not sure how to say this the right way. I think it may have to do with the giant round eyes. :P

All in all this is one cute as heck comic book and I would definitely recommend it to everyone in need for some love, romance, and cuteness!

Ok, soooo do heart eye emojis count as a full and thorough review? I have been excited about this book since I very first heard it was going to be coming out. I must say- I was not disappointed. At all.
I follow Catana Comics on Instagram and Facebook, and LOVE all of these cute little comics. They are adorable, relatable and funny. I cannot recommend this book enough. Such cute snapshots of life in a relationship. It is just as quirky and silly as being in a relationship. I love love loved it.

Little Moments of love depicts the everyday interactions of a couple. Using cute cartoons, the author shows that it's the little things that show how much you love someone. Sweet, funny, and incredibly true moments of a couple are gathered in a very good comic book. Strongly recommended!
