Happily Ever After & Everything In Between is an amazing comic collection from the mind of Debbie Tung. It's all about married life, especially the more insane elements that can come from the first few years of being together.

This has got to be one of the more endearing graphic novels I've read this year. Its so adorable yet isn't afraid to make jokes at the expense of the two leading characters (a recently married couple, naturally).

Their relationship is so organic and real, you can tell that Debbie Tung based much of it (if not all of it) on real life. Personally, I love that the couple features an introvert and an extrovert. Anybody who has been in or seen this pairing before knows exactly how chaotic it can become at times!

It's amazing how relatable both characters are (though obviously I found myself appreciating the commentary from the introvert more, no surprise there). Plus, I love how weird the characters were portrayed as – because we all get a little bit weird when there's nobody other than our significant other around. It's okay to admit that! That's something that Debbie Tung really reinforced here, and I love it.

If you've ever seen or read anything by Debbie Tung in the past, then you know exactly what you're in for in regards to art style. If not, the cover itself should help to give you an idea. She loves making quirky characters, and usually works in mostly black and grays (though when color is called for, red is always a fun way to go).

I cannot recommend Happily Ever After & Everything In Between, or any of Debbie Tung's graphic novels enough. I adore her work, and cannot wait to see what she comes up with next.

I received an ARC from NetGalley from Andrews McMeel Publishing. This is another wonderful collection of comics from lovely introvert Debbie Tung. This collection illustrates her married life to someone who is a bit more extroverted than her, but compliments her in sweet, fun and tender ways. If you are looking for cute and uplifting little bits from a couple’s first months of marriage, I recommend this collection as a sweet romp. Debbie interweaves her love of books and her strong introvert ways. This is relatable for me and I enjoy her simple grey-scale illustrations.

I think this comic was simply lovely! I really enjoy comics that take normal, everyday moments in life and add a little humour. I found the characters relatable and I adored the artwork!

There is something so special about the little moments in a long term relationship that you don't appreciate until they are pointed out to you.

Would highly recommend!

I gave this graphic novel a four out of five stars. I really enjoyed this, it's the second graphic novel I've read by the author. I can't wait to see what else the author comes up with. I like the art, it was cute. I liked their relationship in it as well.

Super cute!! I loved Book Love, and enjoyed this just as much. Many of Tung's comics mirror my life, which I think is why I enjoy it so much. A solid nice, easy, series of comics, and perfect for fans of Sarah's Scribbles!

Thanks to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for providing me with an e-arc in exchange for an honest review!

Debbie Tung is one of those artists that makes meaningful, relatable and funny comics. I've loved her earlier work so I was very excited to start this book! And I wasn't dissapointed!

The comics are about married life and are pretty much based on the authors own life. Even though I'm single, I still laughed out loud at some of the comics and found many things relatable.

If you like lighthearted comics that warm your heart as well as make you laugh, read this one!

This was such a stinkingly cute picture book. The drawing style was really adorable. The bits were funny and super appealing. A quick read naturally. Keeps you turning pages because of the content and also the nature of the book.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for this review copy. Comes out in June. Grab yourselves a copy to enjoy with your special someone. Or just yourself. 😇

I loved the slice of life aspect of this graphic novel so much! Having read and adored something else by this author, I was very excited to dive into this one, and it was everything I needed! It was extremely adorable and funny, and I had such a good time reading it!

A sweet graphic novel about life after marriage, I adored the perspective of doing simple everyday things with your significant other, but it’s just special to you two. This was sweet, funny, and a charming read!

I have seen some of the authors artwork all over social media and I was really looking forward to reading one of her books. So when the opportunity to read and review the ARC of her latest work I immediately requested it.

In this comic book we follow the author and her husband on their day to day lives as a newlywed couple and the little acts of love they do for each other every day. As it was expected, this did not bring any new ideas to the table, some of the things she did I had already seen them done, HOWEVER, the way she did them gave this book a personal touch that you just connect with.

Even though I am not married and don’t plan to be in the near future, I have been in a loving relationship for more than 4 years. This allowed me to connect to must of what the author portrayed in the comic book. For most of the book I was like “me and my boyfriend totally do this” and it was so fun to send him some of my favorite ones in which I felt we were most represented.

I would really encourage you to pick this book up, it is fun and sweet and in the end I am sure everyone will identify with some aspect of the book, if not, at least read it because of the illustrations (especially the full page ones).

Overall, this book represent everything I want when I get married. It was a short fun read that brighten up my day and I will definitely pick up a physical copy when this book comes out.

Thank you to the publisher, the author and NetGalley for allowing me to read this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is really, really cute, it gave me cavities, I loved it. Even as a perpetually single person with no particular desire to marry, or even do the entire relationship-thing, all the loving vibes made me smile and sigh a bit, sort of like the way you do at a cute puppy or a romcom. Just good vibes all around.

If you like Debbie Tung, and you like comic strips (web-cartoons) about young marriage, than this is probably a good book for you.

However, if young love isn't all that funny for you, I would stear clear of this. There are a lot of jokes that are slices of life, but not funny enough to make me laugh. This is all 20-something young love, and that's fine, but if you aren't there, or don't relate, you won't find this to be the best book for you.

That doesn't mean this isn't cute, as they get their first house, and make their first couples friends, and all the thing that goes into early marriage.

Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.

I have so much love for Debbie Tung's comics and grahic novels. She is a book lover and reader, an introvert, and in this book in love... She is relatable on ALL the levels and I was thrilled to get to read this book.

The comics throughout this collection are so funny, so real, and SO cute. She shares her introvert/marriage wins, many that I too have experience with. For example, doing your own things but together, getting a cup of tea because you looked like you needed it, leaving a gathering early, deciding to stay in with a pizza and a movie. The whole collection is drawn by the author herself inspired by her real life experiences and it shows. It made me laugh and smile and frown a bit and happy cry a bit. It was the range of emotion I love especially from a graphic novel where things are so simple yet so complex.

I think that if you are married or in a long term relationship this book will really resonate with you, it might not hit all those points if you are single. Although it will still be a cute and romantic read. I will be reading this book again and again.

Oh my goodness this was adorable. I have to read all of her other books ASAP. I couldn’t stop smiling the entire time I was reading this.

Haven't read the previous Debbie Tung's books but this was nice.
Happily Ever After & Everything In Between pretty much shows the perfect relationship - they understand each other, they are head over heels in love with each other and they support each other. The reality isn't as shiny of course and Tung does show some glimpses of the "bad times", but the book is filled with nice and heartwarming comics.

I am so, so sorry. I have downloaded this book and attempted in a variety of ways to figure out how to read it and review it. I looked at the help section, checked on apps to see if I could find something that worked, all to no avail.

I am SURE I would have liked it, as I have read the author's other books and liked them a lot!

While I greatly appreciate the ability to read and review the galley, I will instead wait until it is published. I will, however, still read the book and still review it on Goodreads, as I have done the others. I will still uphold my end of the deal!

I will give this book four stars because I know the author;s work and would be greatly surprised if it merited anything less than four stars from me!

Thank you so much for the galley and I apologize for not being able to do my part with the galley. I will review her book online on Goodreads once it is available in a format that I can read.

Totally relatable comics....addressing a developing relationship.... It's a fun, quick read that might have you nodding & remembering those same feelings....& all with a satisfied, happy smile on your face! You can see Debbie's introverted side & appreciation for books in her drawings. Introverts & bibliophiles will definitely enjoy this......but I'm betting everyone will find appreciation for her work! I'm definitely going to search out more of her writing/drawing!
I received an e-ARC of this book from Andrews McMeel Publishing via NetGalley, in return for offering to read it & post my own fair/honest review.

Happily Ever After & Everything In Between is a love story that will make you smile. It is a collection of comics that portray the life of a young, married couple. The wife is more introverted and the husband is more extroverted which makes for many entertaining moments. The author drew all of the illustrations herself which is my favorite part of this book. The drawings overall are very cute and I enjoyed the drawing style. Debbie Tung’s writing is good; I believe she did a great job of creating many honest moments through the characters’ antics. The pacing is quick and easy to get into. The plot is very simple but can be easily seen as relatable. I do wish there was more humor in this book, as I did not find myself completely laughing, I only chuckled here and there. I feel like there could have been more to this story, and although the ending is very sweet, I did not feel the need to finish it in one sitting. It may be because I do not read comic books very often but I felt it lacked something. However, I suggest this book to any young and settled couple. This book teaches you that although you and your spouse may be opposite people, with hard work opposites always prevail.

Oh, so sweet and fun! If you're in a long-term relationship, you will most likely find several of these cute comics relatable and expect a few giggles and smiles from them. Overall the collection expresses subtle everyday moments in a relationship when the couple is very comfortable with one another. It's more sweet than humourous.

I loved Book Love by Debbie Tung, but was not very impressed by Happily Ever...I mean, you can talk and read and write about married life in thousand possible ways and this is one of them, but personally felt not impressed by the narrative. Maybe things were too easy too be truth, most on the boring side, maybe the fault is on me, as I was thinking about a completely different kind of graphic read. But like in relationships, not books are supposed to be a match.
