I don’t think there was a page that I didn’t utterly love. Every single page was amazing and I loved them all. I could have read about a thousand more pages, even! Jimmy and Elise were funny and I really liked seeing them get into a relationship with each other.

I liked that there were no stakes and that it was a relaxing read. When you’re like me and read a a majority of medium/high stakes books, it’s always nice to breathe and read an easier book (easier here meaning a low-stakes fantasy book).

Received a review copy NetGalley. All thoughts are my own and in no way influenced by the aforementioned.

Fangs, it was a book that caught my eye and although it was not what I expected, it did not disappoint me, nor would I say that it surprised me, but that does not mean that I loved what I found in the book.
We situate ourselves in the lives of our two characters, a vampire and a werewolf, who meet one day in a bar and from there begin a relationship along with all those typical ups and downs of a couple.
I was pleased to find this idea where there was practically no common thread in the whole story, rather it was a set of situations that our characters were going through, which I found FRESH, which is the best way I tend to describe this novel.
It was fun, and with its good dose of emotions, it was simple but effective, I loved it.

This was adorable and funny, the art was wonderful. I am a big fan of vampires and this was a good and quick vampire/werewolf book.

An unbelievably cute and touching book. I really enjoyed reading this book. It's pretty different from what I normally read, refreshing.

I love Sarah Andersen's other works so when this came out I had to read it. It is so different in style than her other comics but its just as well done! It's a fun and realistic look into a werewolf and vampire would look like dating (I mean, probably). I would read more about these two characters and their adventures, or non-adventures. A type of story that makes you think there is someone for everyone-even if they're monsters.

This book was so adorable!! I also loved how multiple comics made me laugh out loud! I would recommend this book if you love vampires, werewolves, and comics.

'Fangs' is flat out adorable. Who would have thought a vampire and werewolf would make such a cute couple? Sarah Anderson bites into the everyday life of the odd couple to find the sweet, snarky and hilarious. It's a fairly quick, fun read.

This was such a cute book! I do agree with other reviewers that because it started as a webcomic, it feels very episodic instead of containing any sort of overarching story, but is fine because this book is adorable! It's worth reading if you want a romance between a vampire and a werewolf that is funny and full of heart.

This is cute, but definitely hindered by the fact that it was originally a webcomic and that every page ends with a punchline. I felt like that really kept this from being more developed, which was frustrating because having each strip be a joke doesn't mean that it has to be shallow.

For those who have read Sarah Anderson's webcomic, Sarah Scribbles, they won't be surprised by the humor in this lovely little horror rom-com. What might happen if a vampire and a werewolf dated? This short graphic novel is a slice of life tale of an unconventional, fanged couple as they deal with dinner dates, conflicting schedules, and the quirks of being anything but ordinary. The sheer adorableness of this book is cut with Sarah's excellent sense of not quite dark humor, making it a lighthearted but not saccharine read. Would definitely recommend to anyone who likes romance, graphic novels, vampires or werewolves.

I love Sarah Anderson's work. Fangs was sweet, cute, and just the right amount of silly. The characters were great, and I found myself loving both of them.

Fangs by Sarah Andersen was interesting enough while I was reading but ultimately mostly forgettable and I skim read most of it. I do want to give this book another try when I'm not in a reading slump though, as it seemed really cute.

I am not even exaggerating when I say I enjoyed every page! This book was just right up my alley. It was so cute and so humorous!

I absolutely loved this book! I was so engrossed by the characters right off the bat. Her writing is out of this world, if you've been in a reading slump this is a great place to start, it absolutely blew me away!

This was one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen! A vampire and a werewolf fall in love and honestly it’s exactly what I wanted. Like so sweet, really ironic and always worth a giggle. I’m very very into seeing everything else this author puts out.

As it turns out, I read this a while ago and just... never reviewed it?

Well I'm here to amend that.

Fangs follows a 300-year-old vampire who has never found her true love. But then she meets a werewolf in a bar and the rest is history. From pro/con lists (eat him or date him) to seeing how two creatures who are so different can make such a cute couple, this book fulfills a need I didn't now I had.

Who knew horror comics could be this cute?

Fans of Sarah Andersen will enjoy this departure from Sarah's Scribbles. The humor is similar (witty, snarky, etc), but it was nice to see how a more contained story could work. I loved the art style and thoroughly look forward to seeing what else Andersen can do.

Graphic novels have to be very good to capture my attention and keep me invested. This one didn’t. It wasn’t bad, just okay.

Fangs is a dark, twisty, bloody collection of graphics and story. I very much like the story, it is very adorable and easy to follow characters. The sweet and engaging little characters are my favorite. It looks glam reading Fangs and will totally recommend it.

Sarah Anderson, most known for ‘Sarah’s Scribbles’, has recently released ‘Fang’s. ‘Fangs’ is the love story between a vampire and her werewolf boyfriend. These comics highlight the ups and downs of a new relationship, with the added struggle of feeding off of blood and shedding on the furniture. This is the perfect comic collection for Halloween and for fans of paranormal romance.

Beautiful illustrations that match so well to the feelings that the author wants to transmit to the reader. I was surprised when I discovered who the actual artist was because we are used to other forms of her art, but her print is definitely there. Light-hearted and full of pure bliss, Fangs depicts precisely what is it to find someone who understands you, who knows even the bad parts of yourself, and loves you with mind and heart in spite of that. We can see that the feeling is mutual between characters and that is what really kept me attached to the story because I think that that is how relationships should be.
