Why Are You Like This? Is a funny, down to earth graphic novel that shows the amazing awkwardness we all experience in everyday life. I loved how relatable the content is, and felt everyone could find themselves on the pages, especially when she starts comparing herself an extrovert to her husband a token introvert. This graphic novel focuses on small moments Meg and her Husband Carson face in everyday life.
The colour were bright and happy, and the facial expressions on Meg and Carson's faces really made this book a lot of fun. Adding in two adorable dogs, and this book is a recipe for a good time.
While this book did make me smile, I wish I could have seen more into the lives of Meg and Carson and not just little moments and memories throughout a year of their life. They touched on many things I related to including; decorating for halloween ASAP, ignoring instructions such as hand washing at item of clothing, the realities of finally graduating from college, and the importance being kinder and loving ones self.
If you are in the mood for a quick graphic novel with fun illustrations, and quirky characters that are very relatable I would recommend checking this out!
Thank you NetGalley for this eARC.

I've spent the whole book saying, it's me. It's a wonderful set of short stories, with which you feel totally identified. The book is so funny and relatable. Loved it. 120% recommended

Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for this advanced copy of the book. So gracious towards Andrews McMeel Publishing and Meg Adams for sending me this lovely book of illustrations that perfectly depicts married life, in my opinion.

This was such a relatable read that had me laughing so hard I was crying! I loved the artwork and a lot of the facial expressions were just hilarious. Read parts of this with my husband and he kept pointing out how much they reminded him of our relationship. Overall a very cute and fun read that will having you laughing out loud!

Why Are You Like This? by Meg Adams is a relatable and cute book that can be read in one sitting. I like this book but it reminds me so much of a book that the same publisher has published before but it was written and illustrated by a different author/illustrator. The style is too similar and stories are very similar too that for a second I really thought it was from the same author. So, that was that.
All in all, this is a short, light and fun read. Sort of relatable and amusing. I like it.

Meg Adams is a hilariously witty and talented artist, whose relatability has won many fans over both online and when they read this book! Through pages of delightful and at times frites caricature we could only use portray ourselves, the author produces art that can only make one exhale loudly through their nose in agreement and amusement. Mrs. Adams has a lot of promise for future graphic novels and I will be waiting!

I love this artist! I've been following her on IG for years so to see that she has a book coming out is super exciting and I jumped on it.
If you know her style, you'll know what you're getting into, but millennial humor, a bit of uplifting content, and fun relatable stuff. Idk, it's a short but fun read!
Thanks to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for an early copy!

I have followed Meg Adams on Instagram for a while and so naturally, I had to read her book. She did not disappoint. As a fellow millennial, her comics ring true.
Please pick up and have a laugh!
P.S. I share her passion for Halloween and February 15th.
Thank you #NetGalley and #AndrewsMcMeelPublishing for giving me the opportunity to read this.

Thank you to the publisher for giving me a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
This is a very cute comic about married life, a relationship owning pets etc etc, I really really really enjoyed the art style of things and thought it was super fun to read. It read super quick and you didn't have to linger over pages like you have with some other comics. Overal a very fun comic to read and I definitely laughed out loud with it before.
Recommend!

Absolutely loved reading this. Relatable from beginning to end, art is extremely fun and it's simply enjoyable to read. Highly recommend!

Absolute masterpiece. The amount of times I laughed, giggled, chuckled, AND SNORTED.. Perfect for couple humor and situations the fairly average millennial (not an insult as it's also me) might find themselves in or react to.
I really needed this. I wish there were more eloquent words to share but I don't. This is great. Read it.

Thank you to Netgalley for letting me read an ARC of Why are you like this? for review purposes.
It is a very nice comic collection that will leave you smiling.
It's good for the soul and it reminds you to be kind to yourself.
Perfect for fans of dogs, Halloween, and life in general.
I recommend it to everyone. There's a little bit of everything in it for anyone.

This was such a cute read. I loved the illustrations and the relatable humor within a relationship. I like that the subtle hints of a year in a relationship with the main seasonal events or how the holiday's are being presented.

HA!! Meg and Carson. The fantastic ringmasters of the finest and funniest circus of PNW living I’ve ever seen in illustration. This book will have you laughing out loud, nodding to yourself, and craving “Christmas coffee”. Her style is fantastic and really resonates with me. She visualizes emotion and humor to the highest degree. Bravo!

I received this copy from NetGalley in exchange for my completely honest opinion.
This a really sweet book about this couple and their day to day lives, showing the good and the bad with their struggles with self-esteem and anxiety,

This was so cute!! Such a fun enjoyable read. I could really relate to Meg’s comments and would love to read more of her writing!

This book is adorable! It is such a hilarious yet relatable read. The style that it is written in is fun while the interactions between the hubby, the author and the pets are conveyed in such a fun manner. I recognized many of these snippets of life from my own life as well as the lives of some people that I know. Others were new to me, but I found them to be just as funny. The illustrations are in perfect tune with the writing style. All in all, this is a great read that will definitely bring a smile to your face but most likely a laugh….or two or three. Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for the opportunity to review this book.

Review to come to my blog in March.
I received this book from Netgalley/Publisher in exchange of an honest review!
I really love this artist and I was so hyped when I saw the book appear on Netgalley! I just HAD to have it! I was curious what comics would be in it and if there would be any new ones.
I absolutely LOVE how the book started with an introduction, breaking the fourth wall. The artist introduces her hubby and her dogs to the readers along with more. This one was such a fun way to start the book and I just laughed aloud while reading. Perfection!
And then the book started and I just had oodles of fun reading the comics. Several I recognised, but there were others I didn't recognise. I also showed several to my hubby, though at one point he just read along with me. XD He is also a fan of the artist! I really loved the various comics we got, from weird things the artist does, to getting ready for Halloween, to her cute dogs, to feeling OK in your body (I wish I could be so confident), to planting tulips in a very special way (which had me laughing), to the returning sunglasses (they are huge), to her relationship with her hubby, and so much more. I just couldn't stop reading so I read this one in one go.
All in all, if you are looking for a relatable and hilarious read, I would highly recommend this one!

This book is ADORABLE. All caps were needed to best express just how much cuteness was in this book. Not just in the fun art style, but because of the sweet snippets of life that the author shares with us about her interactions with her husband, pets, and own inner thoughts. I related to so many of the emotions (that were expressed so cleverly through fun facial expressions) and situations that were conveyed so well through illustrations and only a few words. Anyone can pick up this book and see a bit of themselves in the daily adventures of making dinner, decorating for the holidays, adoring pets, and enjoying the simple joys of life. I have followed this artist/author on Instagram for quite a time and am so glad to see them share their work and self through a book that will make you smile, laugh out loud, and consider some deeper reflection on you.

This is the most fun I had reading a comics in a while. Meg Adams’ drawing style matches so perfectly the funny and relatable stories told by this collection. I couldn’t help but laugh out loud at some of the facial expressions and the way I recognized myself and my loved ones in some of the short strips.
I definitely recommend this book if you’re looking for a short and hilarious read!
