4.5 stars.

Catana Comics always put a smile on my face. Catana Chetwynd has a wonderfully simple style that allows the little moments to be highlighted in a way that is intensely relatable. This collection really is as snug as the title would indicate, and it's made for some wonderfully light reading. Snug is the kind of comics collection that has you pestering your partner to be like "hey look, this is US."

I'd recommend Snug for anyone who is already a fan of Catana Comics, or to anyone who enjoys short slice-of-life relationship comics.

I adore Catana comics. I'm so glad she is coming out with a second book! This collection of short comics continues the adventures of Catana and John in such a fun and relatable way.

Really cute and funny like the first book. I could definitely relate to the main character and sometimes could see my boyfriend and I through certain scenes.

Catana does the most adorable couple comics. Her comics are all so wholesome and cute. This book is easy to read and digest and that lends itself to easy re-readability. This is the kind of book you can keep on the coffee table to enjoy whenever you need a pick-me-up or have a few moments before leaving the house.

Chetwynd’s second comic book follows along the path of the first one. We follow the everyday life of a couple with its funny, sweet, and wonderful moments that bring. Absolutely relatable, Snug is a quick and easy read that will appeal to Chetwynd's fans and everyone looking to wind down for an hour of easy reading. A recommended read.

This book of comics is absolutely adorable! It contains individual comics on each page that illustrate sweet everyday moments between a couple. I read this in one short sitting and smiled from start to finish. I definitely recommend to anyone who needs a pick me up.

4 / 5 stars!

Ohhh, this was too cute and the perfect cozy read as the colder months approach. I first found Catana’s comics a few years ago, when her boyfriend posted one on Reddit and it was a hit. Since then I have sent SO many of her comics to my now husband said “look, it’s us!” - to which he normally replies “wow, it’s like she has a camera in our apartment!”. It has been a joy to follow Catana Comics on social media and watch as her comics have developed and improved over the years.

This was a feel good collection with a nice mix of old and new. I had to keep calling my husband over to look at them. Catana nails the day to day life of being in a long term relationship with your best friend. Some people might find them corny, but I find them wholesome and relatable. <3 Perhaps my only complaint is that I wish it had been a smidgen longer, but that’s mainly me being greedy and being a Catana addict.

This comes out early February and would make a fantastic gift for an SO, long time married couple, or newlyweds!

Snug: A Collection of Comics about Dating Your Best Friend

I Picked Up This Book Because: I’ve seen random comics by this author on social media and was interested in the book.


The Story:

These little bug eyed cuties have stolen my heart.. And maybe part of my personality. These illustrations are cute, true and would make for an excellent coffee table book. I hope this author continues to illustrate her truth.

The Random Thoughts:

I have been a big fan of Catana Comics for a few years now so I couldn’t resist getting this book. I loved the last book so I knew this one would be just as good, and it did not disappoint! I relate to almost every one of these comics. It’s like its me and my husband in all of them and I love it. These comics perfectly express how relationships are and are so relatable. How can you not love them?

I cannot recommend this book enough! If you are a fan of comics I really suggest you read this, especially if you are in a relationship.

Super cute quick relatable read. I recommend it for anyone that enjoys Catana's other comic collections/strips.

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?
