Candy Hearts, by Tommy Siegel had me laughing the whole way through. These quick, one panel cartoons are quick-witted and cut straight-to-the-point.

I found Siegel’s use of the traditional Valentine’s Day candy as a mode to discuss relationships unique. I enjoyed the idea of each person with their inner monologue written on the outside.

Candy Hearts publishes on February 2, 2021 - just in time for Valentine’s Day!

Thank you to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for the advanced review copy in exchange for my honest opinion.

This book was not my liking. It was just full of all the sexual innuendos and things people discuss behind closed doors. I am not a stuffy person, but I just couldnt finish this book..

This comic was pretty good. As someone who is past the dating part of my life and a millennial who didn’t participate in social dating apps I found it not relatable a whole lot. I guess I’m just one of those old fashion in person for everything kind of people. Some parts I really loved though and laughed out loud! The artistry was really great!

I received this book from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.
This was such a cute comic. I wish real heart candies came with some of these sayings.
Loved the idea with the inner monologues as the text on the candy hearts.
Some of the cartoons were laugh out loud funny and some made me smile,
I am know going to check this author out for more of his writing content.

This comic was incredible funny and cute at the same time. I love every situation betwen this candy hearts and I feel represent in some of then.

More surprisingly relatable comics from Tommy Siegel, this time just in the form of candy hearts that, well, wear their hearts on their fronts.

This book was cute, there were many relatable settings.
There was also a few that I did not relate to.
There is a touch on the pandemic, this cold get it to sell better.
The idea of using candy hearts is a very cute idea.
This is not a valentines book, even though it looks this way.

this was a quick read and very light hearted. Tommy Siegel nicely explains how the internal thoughts works in social settings. This book truly depicts "a picture can tell thousand words".

This was a pretty fun book, although it got a little samey. It would work better as something to dip in and out of rather than to read cover to cover. I did enjoy it better than I Hope This Helps by the same author.

Just finished Tommy Siegel’s book CANDY HEARTS, due out February 2, 2021. Great collection of comics filled with conversation hearts that say what we really wish they said. Brutally honest in a very entertaining way, this book is going to make a great Valentine’s Day gift for those who are single AND those in relationships.

"Candy Hearts" by Tommy Siegel is a hilarious comic book that takes a real look into people's minds when it comes to love and relationships. Each panel is simplistic in its wording however, a picture really does tell a thousands words and Siegel is able to tell whole stories in each individual panel of this comic book. His views on love, relationships, and Tinder hit so close to home and this books sheds a light on the inner workings behind people's intentions all while doing so through humor. Siegel's art style is simple and and effective. He is able to portray so much emotion simply through the candy heart's body language.
I laughed out loud multiple times throughout this comic book and would highly recommend it to everyone!


Thank you Netgalley for giving me this e-arc in exchange for an honest review.

Thanks to Netgalley for the early copy in exchange for a review.

This was a real quick read and somewhat relatable. Some of the cartoons were a little funny, some didn’t make sense to me and some just not funny.

I adored this book about people’s internal thoughts and daily issues, written on simple Candy Heart people. It was funny but also covered real and difficult topics. The illustrations were cute And simple with the bright colours of the Candy Hearts making them stand out on each page.

My only complaint is that I wish it was longer. I now cannot wait to read more from this author/artist.
I enjoyed this Graphic Novel immensely and gave it 5 stars. I will definitely recommend this book and buy a copy when it is published.

An absolutely hilarious short graphic novel about modern social discourse and relationships through candy heart one-liners. I was cracking up laughing at more of these than I anticipated going in, which is always a pleasant surprise. Other pages almost hit toooooo close to home (lolololol). I'm so glad I decided to read this because it was the exact type of self-depricating, while also being insightful, humor that I needed in the current times. Highly recommend.

Thank you to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for an eARC. All thoughts and opinions are my own*

The candy hearts are referring to the inner monologue of ourselves. I liked the candy hearts cartoon as it is simple yet cute, but I could not relate much to the monologue.

Thank you Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you Netgalley for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange for a honest review.


This book has a comical representation of issues revolving around relationships.
Cute cartoons


Unfortunately I couldn't connect much with this book .

I am not going to lie. I only requested this from NetGalley because of the cover. I didn't even hesitate, I just downloaded it and laughed through the whole thing. It is a unique and brilliant way to talk about our innermost thoughts without, you know, talking. I will be on the lookout for more from this author/artist.

Candy Hearts by Tommy Siegel sadly I didn’t find this very funny. Maybe I’m not the target audience. The rt is good I just didn’t enjoy it personally.

This was cute. Not my favorite bound comic collection though. The COVID jokes were very lack luster. I usually read to escape the world that is going around, and that's why I love little comic collections and graphic novels. To see jokes about COVID at the moment, I really did not appreciate those.

Loved the idea with the inner monologues as the text on the candy hearts.
Some of the cartoons were snort-funny, some made me smile, some were meh, but the overal was a nice quarantine distraction.
