I love Catana's comics, and have been eagerly awaiting this book ever since I first heard about it. It did not disappoint. Sure, I'd seen most of the comics before on her tumblr, but having them together in one place for easy perusal still made it totally worth it :-D

Catana and John are so cute together without being overly sappy or unbelievable. There were more than a few comics I had to show my husband, because "this is US!!!", and I finished the collection with a happy smile on my face.

My only complaint? It's too short!

Thanks to Andrews McMeel Publishing for the ARC!

I love this book. I didn't know the artist before, but I'll definitely follow her on instagram after this. Her comics are so adorable, cute and funny! I think everyone can relate to at least a few of these situations. I agree with the other reviewer who said that it would make a great Valentine's Day gift.

In the tradition of Sarah’s Scribbles and others I’ve been looking for cutesy little comic books, and Little Moments of Love was one of them. I had seen some of them passing by on facebook but I wasn’t really familiar with her work.

The style is quite nice, and so are the comics, I just thought it was a bit too much of the same after a while. Quite a lot (almost all) of the comics are about how she and her boyfriend love each other, and it gets repetitive after a while.

Still nice, but a bit of variation would have been better!

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Five hearts intead of stars. Darn cute! I've seen the author's work online, but this book made me smile. Had to screenshot and send my faves to my husband because they were so true!

The comic was probably the cutest way to show you love someone. It was a light read but some of the messages run deep in any relationship. What makes little moment of love stand out is its comic form. Most love stories are all words and no picture which is fine but with little moments of love you get the visual aspect to it which makes it more real.

I've seen the comics they've made on Facebook, so when I saw this was being turned into a graphic novel, I had to take a look! These comics are so whimsical and cute.
Little Moments of Love depicts the every day moments that a couple has with each other. From the cute, the hilarious, and the complete truth of how long term relationships work.

This is absolutely adorable. Charming, heart-warming, all the words that aren't often used in my reviews. I think this book will offer many people hope for what relationships can be like, and is a sweet thing to flick through with your significant other around an anniversary (which was when and how I read this galley). Definitely recommend.

I thought the drawings were really cute it kind of reminded me of the precious moments that used to be in the newspaper but i thought these were really closer to reality than the ones on the newspaper and definitely funnier.

Let's be real. I knew I would love this going into it. I had already seen some of her work and was already a fan. So it is unsurprising that I found this adorable and completely relatable, but there it is. I would recommend this to all my friends. The art and moments are just perfect. Warm and fuzzy!

I love Catana's comics and I've been following her since she began! I am so excited to see her success continue with this beautiful publication. Catana's comics are cute and relatable. Her comics never fail to make me smile.

I picked this up because I’d seen and enjoyed some of the comics on Twitter before, and this collection seemed very much in the same vein as the Sarah Scribbles collections, which I love. That turns out to be partway true.



Ms. Chetwynd’s very first comic was about her relationship with her boyfriend, so it’s no surprise that that’s the same material almost all of the comics are about. It’s cute, sure, but I think it’s also the reason so many of them fell flat for me, since many of the relationship topics aren’t universal but more specific to them. The multiple comics about their height differences, for example, didn’t resonate for me since my husband and I are pretty much the same height.



It’s also tooth-achingly sweet and a bit too cutesy for me. I think college-me would’ve eaten this up, but I’m an old grump (with kids!) now, so it was just too much of the same thing. She likes cuddling her boyfriend, spending time with him, she even misses him when he’s asleep – and that’s about it. It’s pretty one-note, and if you’re not into “aww-ing” over how cute the couple is together, you’re going to be bored. There’s one comic about the differences when they argue, but that’s pretty much the only indication that their relationship is anything other than sugary sweet. And, I mean, I get it – with something so very autobiographical, you don’t necessarily want to hang everything out there for the world to see, but it seemed unbalanced to me to show all the fluffy happy bits and nothing else.



The art is simple and absolutely adorable. Ms. Chetwynd has an easily identifiable style that fits the content perfectly.

Overall, I got a few giggles out of this, but I think I’m too much of a crusty cynical old fogey to enjoy this properly. I think this would be a great gift for a couple in the ooey gooey relationship stage, though!

Thanks to Netgalley for the advance copy in exchange for an honest review. I loved this cute little comic book. It's super sweet and sappy and cute. If you love love then you will love this book!

An adorable collection of comics drawn by the author to imitate the relationship between her and her boyfriend. I had a smile on my face the whole way through it, and found myself laughing out loud a few times. I also found myself connecting to many of the situations portrayed, as so many of them are pretty common for almost any couple to have gone through at some point.

Really just a happy and feel good read that showcases some of the absurdities of being in a relationship, but also portraying those moments of love and appreciation that keep us going.

Recommended if you enjoy depictions of real-life relationship funniness, and are just in need of a good laugh and a smile.

Such a cute and adorable read!

The graphic novel Little Moments of Love by Catana Chetwynd is a book filled with short comics that were inspired from her relationship. Through reading these comics one can see how much she truly loves her boyfriend John. I loved these comics because anyone who is in a relationship can be able to relate to most of them. When reading there were times when I had to stop and show my boyfriend the comic because we could totally relate! I love the warm feeling I felt when reading these comics. I do recommend this book because it was cute, funny, and heartwarming. I did like some comics more than others but overall it was an enjoyable read.

This book is literally the cutest thing I've ever read! I'm a huge fan of Catana comics, and having so many in a collection like this is absolutely brilliant. I kept wanting to screenshot a comic to text to my husband, but then turning the page and finding one even more perfect... I love how Catana can put so much love and affection into such simple drawings - this would make the most perfect gift for any couple because I bet there's something everyone can identify with here. I am in love with Catana and John's relationship! I pre-ordered a hard copy minutes after reading this, because it's just so perfect!
