Adorable collection of comics that are drawn in such an endearing way. I found myself going back to this every now and then during winter. This book felt like a warm hug.

Well, first of all this is a book where it shows us a comedy that many people live in a couple relationship, whether the woman is annoying or the man too, there may even be moments where this book is serious but for these events one gets a laugh. This is a book where various forms of a cute couple are shown, not toxic. Where it is funny, but at the same time very tender.

This is a book that I loved, not only for its humor, but I also loved being able to understand almost everything, that is, I am not a native English speaker, I speak Spanish, but reading this book I really felt reading a book in my language .

I still remember not more than twenty minutes ago when I finished it, for the last pages, there are two moments that made me laugh a lot, one that is when she gets too excited, and the other the typical one of us men who put products in the cart at the supermarket

I picked this graphic novel on a whim because the cover was cute. But dang, I’m super happy that I did cause this was sooooo adorable, funny, and is totally accurate!!! I’ve been with my significant other for 7 years now and I felt like I was seeing a cartoon of us.

The art was fun and I really love how couples are depicted in this graphic novel. There isn’t a storyline to this, but it really hooked me in from the first few strips. I seriously hope there will be another one to binge read. Cause imma need that stat!!!

I recommend this to people in a long, mostly loving relationship. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ It just rang true throughout. Needless to say, I just adore this graphic novel.

Thanks so much to NetGalley and Andrews Mcmeel Publishing for the opportunity to read this for my honest and unbiased opinion!!!

Will be posted on my blog and Amazon shortly.

Another cute collection from Catana that portrays a bunch of relationship scenarios. Anyone in a long-term relationship will find much to relate to in this.

More than anything this was just a cute fun book that took my mind off mind-numbing reality for the length of a lunch break.

This was a pretty fun graphic novel to read. The comics were clever and gave me some strong laughs. It did a great job giving readers a peek into a simpler side of a relationship. Fans of this comic will want to check this graphic novel out.

This book was charming! I had previously seen Catana Comics on social media and would always enjoy how sweet and healthy they were, so when I saw this book, I was thrilled. It lived up to and surpassed my memories of the ones I used to see on social media. I enjoy how genuine each set feels. The comics are absolutely adorable, illustrate a healthy relationship, and leave you with that warm, fuzzy, hopeful feeling!

This collection of comics depicts sweet everyday moments between Catana and her fiancé.

I love her cartooning style and how she highlights ordinary moments that are really quite special. This is the perfect, cozy read for Valentine’s Day.

Thank you to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel for this eARC.

I love Catana Comics! They remind me so much of me and my husband. The cuteness and love in the relationship are heartwarming and comforting.

You guys, I love these comic collections so much. There isn't too much to say other than I really love them. Catana Comics brought me so much joy during a hard time in my life, and ever since then I buy each new collection that comes out. I share them with my husband as I read them as well, since so many of our messages on Facebook and Instagram include sending these comics back and forth to each other. They make me laugh as I read them, and whenever I am having a bit of a hard day I know that I can take one of these collections off of my bookshelf and reread them to brighten my morning.

I would absolutely recommend these comic collections to anyone. They are quick, light, wholesome, and heartwarming reads. I think that these are perfect to read on a grey and drizzly day, or maybe just to keep by your bed to read one when you wake up in the morning, to start your day off on a bright note.

My Review:⭐️⭐⭐⭐⭐/ 5 stars

I have been a huge fan of Catana’s comics for a few years now so I was ecstatic to find out there was a new book just in time for Valentines Day. I send these pictures of this adorable couple to my husband on an almost daily basis exclaiming, “IT US / IT ME!” This is a great gift to a partner - these drawings are just so darn cute!

Thank you to Andrew McMeel Publishing and Netgalley for the advanced copy in exchange for my honest review!

SO CUTE!
I love Catana and her comics are really relatable for me and my partner, minus a dog and adding a cat.
So many of these became a sticker for my messenger and I love her.

Ridiculously cute and sweet! The art was adorable, the couple relatable, and the whole thing was just heartwarming. I need to go back and read Little Moments of Love and Snug, and I can’t wait!

While I enjoyed Catana Chetwynd’s first collection, it was a bit too cutesy for me. This one, however, struck a different chord with me. While it’s still pretty cutesy, it’s also a bit toned down and more about being an established couple. Plus, after 2020, who doesn’t need something pure and sweet?



The general theme of the collection is being loved, weirdness and all, and for the most part, I found the comics charming and worth a giggle. I wouldn’t say they’re laugh-out-loud funny, and that’s not the intent. They’re not the kind of comics you have to send to everyone because “omg it’s so funny,” they’re the ones you send to your significant other because they remind you of your relationship. There’s lots of silliness about choosing to stay in and cuddle rather than going out, bits about their dog, and just generally how weird they are, together.



The artist has a very recognizable style, with characters with adorably big heads and eyes. It’s deceptively simple line art done mostly in greyscale, but the characters are still very expressive, though John’s beard/hair combo took a little to get used to. The lettering also emphasizes roundness (and adds to the cuteness) but I found it easily readable.



Overall, this collection has perfect timing, as it’s the exact sort of thing I could see someone buying their significant other for Valentine’s Day.

I received an advance review copy of this book from NetGalley. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

I've read the other books by this author and have seen some comics around online as well. I have always found her work to be relatable. This book had a lot of fun and short comics of a straight relationship. I could identify with a lot of the scenes depicted and found quite a few of them chuckle worthy.

Thank you so much to the publisher and Netgalley for the free copy of this ARC in exchange for an honest review. These are my honest opinion of the book and are not influenced by anyone.

I could scream from the top of the mountain that I love and adore Catana’s comics! 😻 I am one of her loyal followers on Instagram, who make sure I share her comics (more like spam her comics in my man’s inbox 😂). So, as soon as I saw this was available on NetGalley, I stopped everything I was doing and downloaded this one!

And glad was I reading it! Catana’s art style is simplistic but really cute and adorable. Every single comic in the book was so darn relatable that I couldn’t stop myself from smiling and even laughing at some parts!

I flew through this book in a blink of an eye, but my heart was savoring every single one of the comic strip. I’ve yet to read her other books, but I will surely be picking her backlist graphic novels soon!

In love and pajamas, demonstrate the daily life of Catana and her other half, in a cute, adorable, and relatable style that’ll surely melt your heart and win you over!

This book is really heartwarming, wholesome and perfect if you’re looking for:

• Cute, light, and fluffy book!
• Fast read!
• Relatable things in a relationship told through
Instagram comics-style graphic novel!

I received an ARC of In Love & Pajamas thanks to the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

The Catana comics have been a part of my husband and I's 'cuteness' for the past few years. Every once and a while I'll give a picture of one of the comics sent to me with something along the lines of 'this is us'. My husband has bought me the first two books and we plan on getting this one as well, even though I have already read it.

I love love love these. The art style is adorable. The strip are typically one page long so very quick to read. Each and everyone make me smile. If you have not heard of Catana comics, you absolutely need to look them up right now for a quick pick-me-up! I cannot wait to add the physical copy to my shelves and flip through it whenever I feel down or in need of uber-cuteness.

Must read!

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

I've followed Catana's comics on instagram so I'm familiar with her comic style and themes. Her comics were endlessly relatable and a joy to read.

Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC.
