Another wonderful slice-of-life collection by Catana Chetwynd. I have been a fan of her comics for a few years now and own the first two books. I was so excited to get an early copy of this book.
If you have been following Catana Comics on social media then you have seen a few of these comics but a good chunk were new. These were all adorable and pretty relatable. Me and my husband are both antisocial homebodies so I really relate to a lot of her and John’s adventures.
This collection was so wholesome, sweet, and perfect! I can always rely on this comic to make me smile, especially on a bad day.

This delight of a comic book rings true to all homebound lovebirds.
My favorite thing about In Love & Pajamas is the fact that it's perfectly adjusted to current times when so many of us are in lockdown. This brilliant comic book shows the charm of being in love in the coziness of your home, without glorifying any romantic destinations.
If you're in love, this is the ultimate comfort read. You will want to take pictures of each page to send to your partner with urgent "so us!!" messages. Even though I'm currently going through a rough patch on this personal front, I was still craving the feeling of knowing and loving someone - and Catana was able to accomplish just that.
I imagine this book would make for a really cute present for your partner with short, personal hand-written notes on each page. What a treat!

In Love & Pajamas by Catana Chetwynd is my introduction to the popular cartoonist, and I can certainly see the appeal of her wholesome and relatable relationship comics. Although I don't fall neatly into the author's target demographic, I can definitely appreciate the relevance of sharing life's intimate moments with the one you love, particularly during these challenging times.
Many thanks to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for the opportunity to read this ARC.

I have been following Catana for quite some time on Instagram already. I absolutely adore her comics, which I always find so relatable. This third collection of comics isn’t an exception. I had a smile on my lips for the whole time and even laughed out loud a few times. It’s one of those books that just makes you happy and feel-good. I don’t have much to say about this little one, no critics just compliments. The art is really cute and the characters, especially if you’re in a relationship I think, are so relatable. You read some of the story and you’re like “oh, I’m not the only one, good.” :D
I 100% recommend this book, as well as her previous ones obviously.

Thanks to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for the digital review copy of this adorable comics’ collection.
I have a migraine. It’s 80 degrees out. I want Popeye’s. All of these things are getting me down at work, but you know what helped make it better? This book. I love Catana’s art style; it’s so cute! Her relatable tales of her relationship made me smile, and I found myself saying, “Same” more than once, even though I’m eternally single (by choice).
It’s out in February, so if you’re a fan of her daily posts on her website, or the art on her Instagram, definitely add this collection to your TBR. I know I’ll be revisiting it again soon when my head hurts a little less and I can enjoy it even more.

If you've ever been on Facebook, you've probably seen Catana Comics shared by your friends. They are insights into everyday life in a relationship and the silly things we do when our partners are (and aren't) looking. This collection focuses on acceptance and love for your spouse's quirky traits, which make you love them even more.
The collection of comics are relatable, especially if you're a woman married to a tall man like I am! You will see yourself and your relationship reflected in these short passages.
My only complaint is minor and will probably be fixed by publication. Because this book was a galley copy, the images weren't cleaned up to the usual crisp standard of a black & white comic book.

I have been seeing these comics all over the internet for a while now, but this is the first time I've seen them in a book form. And what a way to spend an afternoon. I loved it!
The way she shows all the quirks and truths of "grown up" life is amazing, and all in 3 to 4 images, Their relationship is so adorable!
Relationship goals all the way.
I have nothing more to say. Go out and buy this thing!

As adorable and funny as the author is used to.
It is impossible for people who have had a partner (and even those who have not) not see themselves reflected in any of these pages.
light and fun to laugh alone or as a couple, it is a series of vignettes where the daily life of a couple is shown, and I am not talking about this "perfect" version, NO, the real one, the rare but funny reality. I really liked it.
Thanks to #NetGalley for the #InLovePajamas e-ARC.

Tan adorable y gracioso como ya nos tiene acostumbrados la autora.
Es imposible para las personas que hayan tenido una pareja ( e incluso las que no) no verse reflejado en alguna de estas paginas.
ligero y divertido para reírte solo o en pareja, es una serie de viñetas donde se muestra el dia a dia de una pareja, y no hablo de esta version " perfecta", NO, la real, la rara pero divertida realidad. Me gusto muchisimo.
Gracias a #NetGalley por el e-ARC de #InLovePajamas.

Full Disclosure: I both read the comic and am now writing this review whilst wearing fuzzy pajama pants. If I could give this book 10 stars, I would.
My thoughts about "In Love & Pajamas" :
THIS IS TOO ADORABLE!!! I definitely saw myself and my husband in a few of these pages. Seeing those moments on the pages gave me ALL THE FEELS!!! A few times as I was reading it, I ran over to my husband and said "LOOK!!!!" He smiled too.
I actually laughed out loud several times... like when...
- She gets the popcorn in his mouth
- He could tell she was driving his car
- He was freezing as he slept
This is such a relatable comic and a clear reflection of a wonderful, loving relationship. This would be an excellent gift for your partner for Valentine's Day, Anniversary, Birthday, or really a just because you want to make them smile. Perfect for millennial couples. Loved it.

SO WORTH IT!!!!!
I find the cover quite different from the previous collections and it's quite refreshing!
Who doesn't love pick with all that lovely content?!
I do for sure!
This couple shows that it's okay to accept how perfect and imperfect your partner is. There's nothing like perfect or imperfect actually!
I love the tiny looking characters! They are cute and smol like always been! But I can also relate with the small hand thing and him asking her that silly question about it made me laugh like nuts 😂🤣
What might seem crazy to others work normal well for some. If you need endless examples, just pick up this book!
They are super cute, super adorable, super clingy (love it as opposed to in real life!), super romantic (not the super cheesy rom-com kind), super funny (not for the ones who will oppose to anything and everything). Well, like always, her comics never disappoint me. Well, it's genuine and that's exactly why it always works!
Thank you, the author and the publisher for this precious ARC! It means a lot to me!🖤

It is a comic that deals with situations that happen when you live as a couple.
Between laughter and laughter, it shows us the day to day and the love between both protagonists.
There are comparisons between before and after living together. (I have identified myself several times). Not only that, but scenes in which they compare the personalities of both (for example, she forgets everything and he remembers even the smallest detail). Also, in relation to the title, it shows that one is not always formally dressed but lives in pajamas ❤
I think it is an excellent comic to enjoy as a couple and have fun remembering how the relationship began and how far it has come.

Just crazy cute. That was a nice book to read. I have heard about Catana Chetwynd and I really wanted to discover her arts and comics. This book was a good opportunity and a great discovery that I have enjoyed.
It was funny and so lovely. The book's simple art style made it much more enjoyable, clear and easy to read and you don't realize how short it is until you're at the end of the book and asking for more.
This books just makes you happy and in love with this couple. I want to read Catana's other books now because like this one it makes you feel good.

If you’re in a happy long term romantic relationship these comics are super adorable! Didn’t take long to read through the volume but I did have a smile on my face while I was reading. You don’t need to have read anything else by her to get these strips, this volume stands on its own merits nicely.

My gosh, this was cuteness overload! I loved every.single.page of it!
I didn’t know about Catana before, so this was my first time experiencing her illustrations. I loved her panels, they were sharp and clean. And I loved the artwork, they were again very sharp and clean.
It was also a pleasant surprise to know that she wrote the comic strips based on her real relationship with John. How sweet is that?!
While the world is bombarded with negativity, and lots of humours have turned dark and snarky, this book is a breath of fresh air. Can’t wait to get my hand on the printed hardcopy when it’s out later!

This was such a cute collection of comics! Catana combines the realities of being in a relationship with her simplistic art style to create heartwarming and often LOL panels. I could definitely see this as the kind of book that couples might go through to point out the things they’ve also done. Although it’s a book about couples, I firmly believe single people would enjoy it as well.

In Love & Pajamas is the latest comic book instalment from Catana Comics, who is popular online for comics featuring herself and her fiancé John. This collection is all about the cozy and comfortable stage of a relationship of being in love, in pajamas, or both!
I first discovered Chetwynd’s comics on Instagram and thought they were funny, cute, and relatable. In Love & Pajamas doesn’t disappoint. Chetwynd is excellent at drawing the humour out of the small things like making your partner a cup of coffee to the big things like future life plans together. My favourite comics from this collection were the ones featuring their dog. I definitely recommend checking this out if you’re looking for some wholesome and cute content!

This book is adorable and funny and reminds me so much of my husband and I. I laughed out loud so many times my husband finally asked what I was reading AND then proceeded to read it himself.
I would absolutely recommend this comic and will be buying a few as gifts. It was a light, sweet and fun read that is perfect when you need a pick-me-up.

For those of you not familiar with this author she illustrates a comic called Catana Comics, where she details the life of herself and her fiancé John. These are very wholesome, sweet, lovey-dovey comics. If you just need a break from our crazy world then look at these comics for a nice warm hug. Two of my favorite comics were when she moves John in front of her so that he’s blocking the sun (to give her shade-I’ve hidden behind my husband before), and the one where he asked if she drove his car earlier and you show the seat 5 inches from the steering wheel (I have short legs too and the car looks totally different when I drive versus my husband).
Read this book for your daily dose of cute.

In Love & Pajamas is a collections of short cute comics by the one and only Catana.
I really like her comics and this compilation was as expected - fun and relatable. I found myself nudging my partner throughout the book, saying "is that us?". The relationship portrayed is healthy and, as the saying goes, screams "relationship goals".
All in all, short, fun and cute. I definitely recommend it.

I just finished reading In Love & Pajamas this morning. A quick and cute read. I enjoyed the first book by Chetwynd, Little Moments of Love, and more enjoyed her later one.
It’s a collection of funny and adorable moments encountered in a relationship. I can found myself in the happiest little moments, making me more in love with this book. Besides, this book brings us to learn that it's okay not to be perfect, and it's more than okay to do silly things in front of your partner 😂
I absolutely loved it and highly recommend this book to all, especially for those who’re married. For those who’re single, you can read as well, but please don’t feel lonely after reading this book. Sending ❤️ to all of you 😘

These comics are absolutely adorable and proof that once you find your person, you can be your completely ridiculous silly self, and they will love you for it. You just have to find them. There are also no stereotypical gender roles in these comics, which is really nice. Both the husband and wife can be serious and silly, rational and irrational, and sometimes both and neither. It's art like this that makes you believe there truly is someone for everyone out there.

In Love & Pyjamas is yet another very short read about a love relationship that makes you feel heartwarming. There is honestly nothing I love more than pyjamas and to pair it up with love is just the cherry on top. This book is adorable and just as cute as the previous book I've read by the author. It makes me feel so single and crave for this kind of relationship in the future. To love, be weird and so comfortable with your significant other that you just know whenever the other needs something. I'm so glad that I picked this up because it makes my heart flutter, I could even relate to some of what the they face and hope to find love just like this one.

Another lovely comic collection by Catana Chetwynd!
This adorable book contains one-page comics inspired by the author's own relationship. This volume has a very nice message: it's so beautiful to be yourself with the person that you love and that accepts you for who you truly are.
This book would definitely make a lovely gift!

This is such a cute collection of mini-comics! You've probably seen some by Catana around on social media - I know I have - and I've always found them enjoyable.
These are extremely relatable - highlighting the little moments, both "perfect" and "imperfect" of the relationship - make you wish you had a doggo, and guaranteed to bring a smile to your face at least once. I'm totally trying the backrub one out tonight - let's see if it works!

In her third collection of "Catana Comics", Chetwynd continues to celebrate the small, everyday moments of a healthy, loving relationship. Whether that is staying in bed a few minutes longer, or deciding that 2 AM is really the best time to clean the entire house, or bringing a very full glass of wine to your partner after they had a bad day, Catana and John are there for each other. It's the love in small gestures, the ones that are private and personal and--yes--most likely happen in comfy pajamas. The cups of coffee and the binge-watching sessions, when deciding that pizza is better than cooking and the favorite photos aren't the staged ones.
Chetwynd's comics define "couple goals" in the coziest, romantic, domestic way possible. With every page loaded with an overload of warm fuzzies, this collection is a perfect gift for a partner, newlyweds, or for yourself!

In Love & Pajamas by Catana Chetwynd is a romance and humor comic novel which focuses on a couple - Catana and John and their sweet and wholesome feel good moments.
I randomly requested this book on NetGalley and I am so glad I get to read this. This is the book you read when you are having a bad day and you want to turn that into a good one. The is just adorable and perfect.
All the comic strips in this book are going to instantly make you feel happy and bring a smile on your face. Maybe some of you are going to easily able to relate some of the instances in this book too.
The drawings are super cute and expressions catched in each drawing is on point. I want everyone to please pick this feel good and super cute yet short comic novel which you would want to read over and over again.
I am sure we have all come across Catana comics shared on social media platforms like facebook and Instagram, but reading this book at a stretch makes my heart melt and fall in love all over again.

Why do I love these comics so much?! Because I see myself in 99% of them.
They are so so damn cute.
I even gifted my partner the calendar for Christmas last year and he loves them as well. We always have a laugh the first thing in the morning.
I highly recommend them to anyone in a relationship, super funny and cute! So relatable!

This was such a cute graphic novel about a couple going on their everyday lives. It reminded me a lot of Soppy by Philippa Rice, which I really enjoyed. It is fun and light-hearted and it portrays what a happy healthy relationship should look like. The events that the author depicts are very relatable; I definitely saw myself represented several times.
The art style was not my favourite, but I have to admit it was pretty good and adorable. Also, a very fast read, I read the entirety of it on one sitting.

Thank you NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for providing me with a temporary e-arc.
I am a huge fan of Catana's previous release, 'Snug'. But this collection was simply something more. Something more beautiful, soft, funny and adorable. The moment I started this cute quick read, I instantly forgot about everything else and savoured every single one of the comic.
The general idea behind this collection is about loving each other's quirks and simple things in a relationship and Catana captures each one of them in a way that ends up putting a smile on your face. Being an eternal romantic, lots of books on love and relationships makes me feel single AF but this collection made me dream of a day when this would all happen to me (ah, a girl can dream) in the calmest way possible and that says a lot of things about this collection!
As as I have mentioned earlier in my review on Snug, Catana is someone whose works I will always be picking up!

Another wonderful slice-of-life collection by Catana Chetwynd. I have been a fan of her comics for a few years now and own the first two books. I was so excited to get an early copy of this book.
If you have been following Catana Comics on social media then you have seen a few of these comics but a good chunk were new. These were all adorable and pretty relatable. Me and my husband are both antisocial homebodies so I really relate to a lot of her and John’s adventures.
This collection was so wholesome, sweet, and perfect! I can always rely on this comic to make me smile, especially on a bad day.

This delight of a comic book rings true to all homebound lovebirds.
My favorite thing about In Love & Pajamas is the fact that it's perfectly adjusted to current times when so many of us are in lockdown. This brilliant comic book shows the charm of being in love in the coziness of your home, without glorifying any romantic destinations.
If you're in love, this is the ultimate comfort read. You will want to take pictures of each page to send to your partner with urgent "so us!!" messages. Even though I'm currently going through a rough patch on this personal front, I was still craving the feeling of knowing and loving someone - and Catana was able to accomplish just that.
I imagine this book would make for a really cute present for your partner with short, personal hand-written notes on each page. What a treat!

In Love & Pajamas by Catana Chetwynd is my introduction to the popular cartoonist, and I can certainly see the appeal of her wholesome and relatable relationship comics. Although I don't fall neatly into the author's target demographic, I can definitely appreciate the relevance of sharing life's intimate moments with the one you love, particularly during these challenging times.
Many thanks to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for the opportunity to read this ARC.

I have been following Catana for quite some time on Instagram already. I absolutely adore her comics, which I always find so relatable. This third collection of comics isn’t an exception. I had a smile on my lips for the whole time and even laughed out loud a few times. It’s one of those books that just makes you happy and feel-good. I don’t have much to say about this little one, no critics just compliments. The art is really cute and the characters, especially if you’re in a relationship I think, are so relatable. You read some of the story and you’re like “oh, I’m not the only one, good.” :D
I 100% recommend this book, as well as her previous ones obviously.

I have a migraine. It’s 80 degrees out. I want Popeye’s. All of these things are getting me down at work, but you know what helped make it better? This book. I love Catana’s art style; it’s so cute! Her relatable tales of her relationship made me smile, and I found myself saying, “Same” more than once, even though I’m eternally single (by choice).
It’s out in February, so if you’re a fan of her daily posts on her website, or the art on her Instagram, definitely add this collection to your TBR. I know I’ll be revisiting it again soon when my head hurts a little less and I can enjoy it even more.

If you've ever been on Facebook, you've probably seen Catana Comics shared by your friends. They are insights into everyday life in a relationship and the silly things we do when our partners are (and aren't) looking. This collection focuses on acceptance and love for your spouse's quirky traits, which make you love them even more.
The collection of comics are relatable, especially if you're a woman married to a tall man like I am! You will see yourself and your relationship reflected in these short passages.
My only complaint is minor and will probably be fixed by publication. Because this book was a galley copy, the images weren't cleaned up to the usual crisp standard of a black & white comic book.

The way she shows all the quirks and truths of "grown up" life is amazing, and all in 3 to 4 images, Their relationship is so adorable!
Relationship goals all the way.
I have nothing more to say. Go out and buy this thing!

As adorable and funny as the author is used to.
It is impossible for people who have had a partner (and even those who have not) not see themselves reflected in any of these pages.
light and fun to laugh alone or as a couple, it is a series of vignettes where the daily life of a couple is shown, and I am not talking about this "perfect" version, NO, the real one, the rare but funny reality. I really liked it.
Thanks to #NetGalley for the #InLovePajamas e-ARC.

Tan adorable y gracioso como ya nos tiene acostumbrados la autora.
Es imposible para las personas que hayan tenido una pareja ( e incluso las que no) no verse reflejado en alguna de estas paginas.
ligero y divertido para reírte solo o en pareja, es una serie de viñetas donde se muestra el dia a dia de una pareja, y no hablo de esta version " perfecta", NO, la real, la rara pero divertida realidad. Me gusto muchisimo.

Full Disclosure: I both read the comic and am now writing this review whilst wearing fuzzy pajama pants. If I could give this book 10 stars, I would.
My thoughts about "In Love & Pajamas" :
THIS IS TOO ADORABLE!!! I definitely saw myself and my husband in a few of these pages. Seeing those moments on the pages gave me ALL THE FEELS!!! A few times as I was reading it, I ran over to my husband and said "LOOK!!!!" He smiled too.
I actually laughed out loud several times... like when...
- She gets the popcorn in his mouth
- He could tell she was driving his car
- He was freezing as he slept
This is such a relatable comic and a clear reflection of a wonderful, loving relationship. This would be an excellent gift for your partner for Valentine's Day, Anniversary, Birthday, or really a just because you want to make them smile. Perfect for millennial couples. Loved it.

SO WORTH IT!!!!!
I find the cover quite different from the previous collections and it's quite refreshing!
Who doesn't love pick with all that lovely content?!
I do for sure!
This couple shows that it's okay to accept how perfect and imperfect your partner is. There's nothing like perfect or imperfect actually!
I love the tiny looking characters! They are cute and smol like always been! But I can also relate with the small hand thing and him asking her that silly question about it made me laugh like nuts 😂🤣
What might seem crazy to others work normal well for some. If you need endless examples, just pick up this book!
They are super cute, super adorable, super clingy (love it as opposed to in real life!), super romantic (not the super cheesy rom-com kind), super funny (not for the ones who will oppose to anything and everything). Well, like always, her comics never disappoint me. Well, it's genuine and that's exactly why it always works!
Thank you, the author and the publisher for this precious ARC! It means a lot to me!🖤

It is a comic that deals with situations that happen when you live as a couple.
Between laughter and laughter, it shows us the day to day and the love between both protagonists.
There are comparisons between before and after living together. (I have identified myself several times). Not only that, but scenes in which they compare the personalities of both (for example, she forgets everything and he remembers even the smallest detail). Also, in relation to the title, it shows that one is not always formally dressed but lives in pajamas ❤
I think it is an excellent comic to enjoy as a couple and have fun remembering how the relationship began and how far it has come.

It was funny and so lovely. The book's simple art style made it much more enjoyable, clear and easy to read and you don't realize how short it is until you're at the end of the book and asking for more.
This books just makes you happy and in love with this couple. I want to read Catana's other books now because like this one it makes you feel good.

I didn’t know about Catana before, so this was my first time experiencing her illustrations. I loved her panels, they were sharp and clean. And I loved the artwork, they were again very sharp and clean.
It was also a pleasant surprise to know that she wrote the comic strips based on her real relationship with John. How sweet is that?!
While the world is bombarded with negativity, and lots of humours have turned dark and snarky, this book is a breath of fresh air. Can’t wait to get my hand on the printed hardcopy when it’s out later!

This was such a cute collection of comics! Catana combines the realities of being in a relationship with her simplistic art style to create heartwarming and often LOL panels. I could definitely see this as the kind of book that couples might go through to point out the things they’ve also done. Although it’s a book about couples, I firmly believe single people would enjoy it as well.

In Love & Pajamas is the latest comic book instalment from Catana Comics, who is popular online for comics featuring herself and her fiancé John. This collection is all about the cozy and comfortable stage of a relationship of being in love, in pajamas, or both!
I first discovered Chetwynd’s comics on Instagram and thought they were funny, cute, and relatable. In Love & Pajamas doesn’t disappoint. Chetwynd is excellent at drawing the humour out of the small things like making your partner a cup of coffee to the big things like future life plans together. My favourite comics from this collection were the ones featuring their dog. I definitely recommend checking this out if you’re looking for some wholesome and cute content!

I absolutely loved this comic! I have been following Catana Comics on Instagram for quite some time and always share her comics with family and friends as they are so relatable. This book is adorable and funny and reminds me so much of my husband and I. I laughed out loud so many times my husband finally asked what I was reading AND then proceeded to read it himself.
I would absolutely recommend this comic and will be buying a few as gifts. It was a light, sweet and fun read that is perfect when you need a pick-me-up.

For those of you not familiar with this author she illustrates a comic called Catana Comics, where she details the life of herself and her fiancé John. These are very wholesome, sweet, lovey-dovey comics. If you just need a break from our crazy world then look at these comics for a nice warm hug. Two of my favorite comics were when she moves John in front of her so that he’s blocking the sun (to give her shade-I’ve hidden behind my husband before), and the one where he asked if she drove his car earlier and you show the seat 5 inches from the steering wheel (I have short legs too and the car looks totally different when I drive versus my husband).
Read this book for your daily dose of cute.

In Love & Pajamas is a collections of short cute comics by the one and only Catana.
I really like her comics and this compilation was as expected - fun and relatable. I found myself nudging my partner throughout the book, saying "is that us?". The relationship portrayed is healthy and, as the saying goes, screams "relationship goals".
All in all, short, fun and cute. I definitely recommend it.

I just finished reading In Love & Pajamas this morning. A quick and cute read. I enjoyed the first book by Chetwynd, Little Moments of Love, and more enjoyed her later one.
It’s a collection of funny and adorable moments encountered in a relationship. I can found myself in the happiest little moments, making me more in love with this book. Besides, this book brings us to learn that it's okay not to be perfect, and it's more than okay to do silly things in front of your partner 😂
I absolutely loved it and highly recommend this book to all, especially for those who’re married. For those who’re single, you can read as well, but please don’t feel lonely after reading this book. Sending ❤️ to all of you 😘
Thank you, Netgalley, and the publisher for the eARC.

These comics are absolutely adorable and proof that once you find your person, you can be your completely ridiculous silly self, and they will love you for it. You just have to find them. There are also no stereotypical gender roles in these comics, which is really nice. Both the husband and wife can be serious and silly, rational and irrational, and sometimes both and neither. It's art like this that makes you believe there truly is someone for everyone out there.

In Love & Pyjamas is yet another very short read about a love relationship that makes you feel heartwarming. There is honestly nothing I love more than pyjamas and to pair it up with love is just the cherry on top. This book is adorable and just as cute as the previous book I've read by the author. It makes me feel so single and crave for this kind of relationship in the future. To love, be weird and so comfortable with your significant other that you just know whenever the other needs something. I'm so glad that I picked this up because it makes my heart flutter, I could even relate to some of what the they face and hope to find love just like this one.

Another lovely comic collection by Catana Chetwynd!
This adorable book contains one-page comics inspired by the author's own relationship. This volume has a very nice message: it's so beautiful to be yourself with the person that you love and that accepts you for who you truly are.
This book would definitely make a lovely gift!

This is such a cute collection of mini-comics! You've probably seen some by Catana around on social media - I know I have - and I've always found them enjoyable.
These are extremely relatable - highlighting the little moments, both "perfect" and "imperfect" of the relationship - make you wish you had a doggo, and guaranteed to bring a smile to your face at least once. I'm totally trying the backrub one out tonight - let's see if it works!

In her third collection of "Catana Comics", Chetwynd continues to celebrate the small, everyday moments of a healthy, loving relationship. Whether that is staying in bed a few minutes longer, or deciding that 2 AM is really the best time to clean the entire house, or bringing a very full glass of wine to your partner after they had a bad day, Catana and John are there for each other. It's the love in small gestures, the ones that are private and personal and--yes--most likely happen in comfy pajamas. The cups of coffee and the binge-watching sessions, when deciding that pizza is better than cooking and the favorite photos aren't the staged ones.
Chetwynd's comics define "couple goals" in the coziest, romantic, domestic way possible. With every page loaded with an overload of warm fuzzies, this collection is a perfect gift for a partner, newlyweds, or for yourself!

This was a really cute collection of comics! All of them center around the same two characters, a husband and wife. Some are funny, all are adorable! I really loved reading through this collection. I know I have seen these around before, but having them in a collection was really fun.
I was given an advanced reader's copy via NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own

In Love & Pajamas by Catana Chetwynd is a romance and humor comic novel which focuses on a couple - Catana and John and their sweet and wholesome feel good moments.
I randomly requested this book on NetGalley and I am so glad I get to read this. This is the book you read when you are having a bad day and you want to turn that into a good one. The is just adorable and perfect.
All the comic strips in this book are going to instantly make you feel happy and bring a smile on your face. Maybe some of you are going to easily able to relate some of the instances in this book too.
The drawings are super cute and expressions catched in each drawing is on point. I want everyone to please pick this feel good and super cute yet short comic novel which you would want to read over and over again.
I am sure we have all come across Catana comics shared on social media platforms like facebook and Instagram, but reading this book at a stretch makes my heart melt and fall in love all over again.

Why do I love these comics so much?! Because I see myself in 99% of them.
They are so so damn cute.
I even gifted my partner the calendar for Christmas last year and he loves them as well. We always have a laugh the first thing in the morning.
I highly recommend them to anyone in a relationship, super funny and cute! So relatable!

This was such a cute graphic novel about a couple going on their everyday lives. It reminded me a lot of Soppy by Philippa Rice, which I really enjoyed. It is fun and light-hearted and it portrays what a happy healthy relationship should look like. The events that the author depicts are very relatable; I definitely saw myself represented several times.
The art style was not my favourite, but I have to admit it was pretty good and adorable. Also, a very fast read, I read the entirety of it on one sitting.

Thank you NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for providing me with a temporary e-arc.
I am a huge fan of Catana's previous release, 'Snug'. But this collection was simply something more. Something more beautiful, soft, funny and adorable. The moment I started this cute quick read, I instantly forgot about everything else and savoured every single one of the comic.
The general idea behind this collection is about loving each other's quirks and simple things in a relationship and Catana captures each one of them in a way that ends up putting a smile on your face. Being an eternal romantic, lots of books on love and relationships makes me feel single AF but this collection made me dream of a day when this would all happen to me (ah, a girl can dream) in the calmest way possible and that says a lot of things about this collection!
As as I have mentioned earlier in my review on Snug, Catana is someone whose works I will always be picking up!
