This story was so stinkingly cute! I haven't read any of Sarah Andersen's previous work, but I certainly will now. I loved her take on the relationship between Elsie, a vampire, and Jimmy, a werewolf. The inside jokes were so much fun and made me laugh a lot. The art was simplistic and suited the humor perfectly.

I have been following Fangs on Tapas as Sarah released episodic panels every week, so nothing in this book is new to me. I just want to say that I absolutely adore Sarah's art and I'm so happy that Fangs is coming out as a comic book!! I mean, we all talk about monsters falling in love, and that's exactly what this is. In vein with everything Sarah has done so far, the panels are slice-of-life, funny, and heart warming all at once. I adore Elsie, although I would be wary of her because she WILL eat you. And Jimmy is just the cutest little good boy, yes he is, yes he is!!

Any way, go check it out when it comes out. It's short, cute and super fun!

We stan Sarah Anderson, obviously.

Thanks to Netgalley for providing me with the ARC. All opinions are my own!

A slice-of-life relationship progression between a vampire lady and a werewolf guy. So many puns, so many dog-jokes (so many dog jokes) and through it all the general base understanding between the two characters that despite their differences (and likenesses) they are, well, perfect for each other? Adorable.

The plot is super super sweet, I found myself smiling in the middle of reading and I found myself getting lost in the art work. As an illustration artist myself, I usually look at graphic novels and comic books for their art and I could care less about the story but I was so distracted by the plot that the art work was secondary which was a huge surprise to me. I really want the physical copy of the book to put on my coffee table and flip through it when I need something to help me smile.

What a lovely Miss Vamp. Perky and cute, she meets her new love at the bar. I bet she never thought her love would be a werewolf.

Absolutely lovely. The art work was perfect; fitting the simplicity of the story to a T.

I thoroughly enjoyed this graphic novel. The characters learn about one another in such child like, sweet ways.
Their relationship blooms into something beautiful.

Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher, and Sarah Anderson for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is super cute. I like the artwork better than her other work. It is a publication of a webcomic though, so there is no real plot other than a vampire and werewolf who love each other. Did I mention it's cute though?

Fangs is a new sweet & funny graphic novel from the creator of Sarah's Scribbles. This is a boy meets girl tale with a twist. In this story Elsie, a vampire, meets Jimmy, a werewolf. The short graphic novel tells the story of their relationship in a series of vignettes. I really enjoyed this one and read it all in one go. It isn't gory at all and has a fun tongue-in-cheek silliness throughout.

I literally read this in 10 minutes. Absolutely loved it! I’m a huge vampire fan so when I saw this I just had to check it out. Each comic summarized the relationship between the vampire and werewolf perfectly. I really loved how each was so accepting of the other’s quirks and needs. My favourite part was probably when he opens the curtains and the sunlight hits vampire Elsie with a ‘fwoosh’ 😂 Anyhoo I highly recommend this comic book to every person on this planet. It’s a super quick read and just so great 😍 I give this book all the stars it was so great!

I love everything about Fangs! The artwork is adorable and holds the story up well since the prose is sparse but effective. Though slim, this graphic novel is brimming with funny and touching moments between Elsie the vampire and Jimmy the werewolf as they navigate the ups and downs of a romantic relationship. I think adults and teens will find much to love about this lighthearted, if a tad on the dark side (which is my cup of tea), paranormal romance in graphic novel format.

This is a quick, fun read. What happens when an apathetic 300-year-old vampire falls for a dry-witted, fun-loving werewolf? Fun ensues! This is a simple but fun comic about a couple accepting each other, flaws and all. It made me chuckle and sigh. A cute love story. Really enjoy the humor and the art.

So cute and clever and heartfelt, but with snarky goth vampire girls dating low-key werewolf boys. Utterly delightful.

"So, Elsie, how does one tame a wolf?"
"One doesn't."

This was an adorable, quick little flip-through of a comic. Very painless and matter-of-fact, it examines what a relationship between a vampire and a werewolf might look like. Practically, that is. Like tiny snapshots that give you a peak into their day-to-days.

Cute and funny (although the humor is sometimes guite dark 😄). I loved their relationship.
I read Fangs on Tapas and was very glad they are getting printed and published. The book itself is also very pretty 😊

It’s cute but it’s not so much a story as a series of unconnected vignettes comics in the life of a vampire and werewolf couple. I think I read the whole thing in under ten minutes but they were a perfectly well spent and pleasant ten minutes. Cute and a little saccharine.

This was super cute graphic novel. A day in a live between the relationship of a Vampire and werewolf. How things progress through images as they mostly tell the story with very minimum word bubbles. I thought this was cute and I had a lot of aww how cute moments.
I didn't get attached to the characters for me though I felt it was cute I felt the love too fast, story line choppy. Hardly any plot .

Super cute, and very very dark. A centuries-old vampire meets a lumbersexual werewolf. The simple black and white illustrations are whimsical and romantic. A great romantic, humorous and fast read.

I loved this so so so much. It was super adorable and funny and had me smiling the whole time. The art style was really simple but cute and I actually loved the way the story was told as well.
Usually, I am not a fan of not having a continuous plot or story but I loved that we dipped into different scenarios and scenes. Even though this was really short you still got to know the characters and love them.

I can not wait to get my hands on a physical copy.

This book was such a funny take on vampire/werewolf love! I throughly enjoyed reading about the relationship dynamic between Elsie, a 300 year old vampire who still hasn't met her match and Jimmy, a charming werewolf who may have taken Elsie's fancy. Through Andersen's comedic writing style and her thoughtful art, we get a glimpse as to how these very different people manage to live together and accept each others vast differences and flaws. I laughed out loud so many times when I was reading Fangs and I think I'll definitely be recommending it to readers who like their comedy with a touch of paranormal.

ACTUAL RATING: 4.4 STARS

I am currently taking a class on the history of the graphic novel, so I was excited to see this! It is a very cute comic, though not quite what I was expecting. Less of a story or plot line, and more a collection of hilarious vampire and werewolf romance related puns.

I've been a fan of Sarah Anderson's for a few years now so I was excited to learn this book would be coming out. The humor in it reminds me vaguely of Christopher Moore's Bloodsucking Fiends series. Needless to say, I adore it. Whether you're a fan of Sarah or Christopher Moore or whether you've never heard of either of them and just want a funny, darkly comedic series in your life, this is one too check out.

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