My heart is so freaking full. I love the brand-new comics and the previously-posted ones equally, and I really enjoyed the mix of single-panel scenes among the classic four-panel setups. I said in my review of her first collection that all I wanted was some scenes of the doggo, and my wish was granted!

This collection had me grinning basically the whole time I was reading it, and lamenting how very single I currently am. (Don't get me wrong, I'm not ready to mingle and generally fine with it — but as always, Catana and John are adorable, *hashtag goals*.)

I love Catana's daily comics on Instagram, and Snug is a perfectly named, cozy little comic book full of intimate (and silly) moments between partners. The art is very simple but wonderfully cute that anybody will be able to relate to - in romantic relationships, or in platonic friendships! This would make a great gift for someone you care about, and I look forward to what's next!

Thank you NetGalley and Publisher for this early copy!

I was not surprised when I read Snug in one sitting. I enjoyed Chetwynd's first collection of comics. I believe that I liked this one even more. I find her material relatable and easy to read. I recommend checking them out, 5/5 stars! I just wish it was longer!

Thank you to Netgalley for giving me the chance to read and review, "Snug" by Catana Chetwynd. I truly loved these adorable comics! I found a lot of these relatable to my husband and I. This book perfectly captures what life is like with your other half.

Another gem of a book. I just love how I could relate to so many of the pages. Found myself nodding my head in agreement so many times. It was such a great book to just savour and enjoy because the story being told was so heart warming and loving

This second volume, collecting the popular and adorable "Catana Comics", is full of cute, relatable, and fluffy comics based around the artist's relationship with her boyfriend. Together, they enjoy cuddling, food, and supporting one another. Relationship goals are met and exceeded as Catana and John easily read each other's expressions to know when it is time to leave the party and go home to make brownies, revel in weather-cancelled plans, and cuddle to balance Catana constantly being cold and John constantly being hot. A perfect gift for newlyweds, a significant other, or just anyone who loves love, "Snug" is a delightful book that will leave you with a smile on your face.

Every time I see one of these comic strips on my social media feed, I always pause and have a read. It’s relationship goals. So having them all compiled together is perfect for someone like myself who needs hope that the one is out there.

Oh, I had no idea that this book was happening. I previously enjoyed the first book very much but for some reason this art sort of disappeared from my facebook. In the past, it used to flood my feed but thinking about it; I did not see one in a very long time.
So, I was a bit surprised, seeing this book, since I did not hear any news about it being published.

And you can bet that I almost knocked over my laptop trying to open it fast enough.

Overall I was very pleasantly surprised! Since these comics stopped showing on my facebook, I can say that I knew only three before reading this. And trust me, it made it just so much better!

What I love about these is that they are super relatable; it just seems like my life, it gives me the illusion of normalcy. What can I say, my limbs are currently cold, and I'm hungry — the story of my life. At least I'm not the only one suffering the same fate.

This was a wonderful surprise and with a puppy as a bonus! What's not to like?

I love when these comics pop up on facebook, and love the book even more. One cannot help falling in love with Snug. Catana, these are wonderful, and bring joy into a world when it needs it most. :-) Thank you!

A collection of cute comics. Nothing amazing about the art or the comics themsleves, but they're all very enjoyable.

I love Catana comics and follow the author on Instagram. Most of these comic strips were new and not previously published online. Each comic strip is relatable for anyone in a relationship. Feel good, heartwarming stuff. I saved most of them to show my other half that 'it's not just me' or 'not just us' or just to put a smile on his face. Hope there are many more to come from Catana.

I never get tired of Catana's comics, and this collection was just as adorable as I expected it to be. My spouse and I always love these because we feel like they're so very us. Honestly, nobody nails "relatable" humor quite as well as Catana does when it comes to cute, casual couple stuff!

If it tells you anything about how much I loved this, despite being the sort of person who almost never pre-orders finished copies of comic collections, I ran off to pre-order this the moment I finished my eARC because I needed it for my shelf (just like I did with Catana's last collection, which I reread often, and fondly ♥). I absolutely recommend picking it up, especially if you're in a long-term relationship and can relate to the cute, goofy things comfortable couples do with each other.

Thank you so much to the publisher for providing me with this ARC in exchange for an honest review!

I just read this with my husband and I love how relatable the comics in this are. they are absolutely adorable as well! Reading them makes me feel so seen and tbh I love that feeling! I can't wait for everyone to get their hands on this and just see all the cute little drawings!

Sweet and real. I was able to identify and swoon over so many of these adorable comics. They depict my marriage to my best friend in such a cute and authentic way. I enjoyed this so much because it is so honest. I have done so many of these actions with my spouse and even if he is annoyed by them we both smiled while paging through these comics. I want this in a desk calendar!!!

Snug is the second collection from Catana Comics, one of my favorite comics creators. I love the sweet, relatable comics Catana creates, and love sharing them with my boyfriend, as they are often very similar to our relationship. This would be a great gift for an anniversary, other special occasion, or just as a little reminder to your special someone that you love them.

Thanks to Andrews McMeel Publishing for the ARC!

This graphic novel is so cute! It's a collection of short comics all about Catana, the artist, and her boyfriend John. You can clearly see how much they love each other and the comics are lovely.
This book is going to be published at the beginning of February and I honestly think it would make the perfect Valentine's Day's present for your significant other.

This was so cute! I just kept screenshotting and sending them to my husband. If you’re in a relationship you will find this so funny.

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

I love love LOVE Catana Comics and this book is not different. Its a bit eerie how similar the comics are to my life with my husband but its really great having a comic I can actually relate to.

Thanks so much to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for letting me read and review this wonderfully fun, entertaining and adorable comic.
My husband introduced me to these comics by Catana Chetwynd a while ago because they are so similar and accurate at describing us and our relationship with our quirkiness and everything.
It's a quick, light read full of cute, quirky and very relatable comics with simple, yet fun and great drawings as well.
If you haven't read or checked these comics out, you really should. They are so entertaining, quirky and full of adorkable cuteness between two best friends.
