Ridiculously adorable, "Fangs" is a gorgeously drawn, and hilarious graphic novel about a vampire and werewolf who date. "Fangs" explores the mundanity of relationships through pun-filled banter, feeling incredibly relatable despite it's supernatural premise .

This is a short comic book about a vampire who finally meets and falls in love with her perfect match, who happens to be a werewolf. This book chronicles their everyday life together whether it's just watching tv or eating a meal.

Cute love story between a vampire and a werewolf from webcomic creator Sarah Andersen, with lovely artwork and plenty of cheeky puns.

I got an arc of Fangs from Netgalley for an exchange of an honest review. Fangs is a graphic novel about daily life of a lover, but the said lover are goth vampire lady and a chill werewolf. It is drawn in 4-koma style, each story is one page long. The characters are cute and adorable, the romance is so fluffy and the comedy is just right. I love this book.

Fangs is a romance between Elsie, a vampire, and Jimmy, a werewolf. There are a lot of cute scenes and some funny jokes about vampires and werewolves. It’s a wholesome romance and the art is really cute. This is something I’ll continuously go back to.

I love Sarah Anderson’s cartoons. While this is a departure from her usual slice of life, observational comics, Fangs has the same heart, and made me smile throughout.

Thanks to Net Galley for a free copy against an honest review!

I really liked the idea: a vampire and a werewolf being in love. It was original and broke the stereotype of these two creatures being mortal enemies. This time, they are together, and there is no tragedy surrounding them. It's simple and funny, light and fluffy, bloody and horrific.

I loved how the great vampire and werewolf tropes were used in this book: it might be deemed traditional, but I loved that it stuck to the original creatures. I particularly like when Jimmy and Elsie are reading vampire books and Elsie is being dramatic about one of them! I also loved the fact that she was three hundreds and was quite extravagant!

I love the way Sarah Andersen decided to draw her characters; it was a different style from her first series, Sarah's Scribbles, the first book being Adulthood Is a Myth . I loved Elsie's style!

The only drawback maybe: the length. I would have loved it to be a little longer, to get more of their relationship! Still it was a good read, and I'd probably read anything by Sarah Andersen at this point!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this arc copy. A story of a vampire girl that meets a werewolf boy and they fall in love despite their differences. I really enjoyed this, it was light and funny and the art style was really simplistic but perfect, it suited the story so well.

Well that was weird. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
This is light and fluffy in the oddest way.

Come meet and fall in love with Elsie and Jimmy as they meet and fall in love themselves.
A quiet story, for those of us with a dark sense of humor, sharp edges and gooey insides.
An opposites attract love story of two monsters that learn to appreciate each others differences.

This is a super sweet collection that’s punny and cute. The story follows a vampire and werewolf who happen to fall in love. It was just a pleasant read for anyone who like puns, vamps, and graphic novels.

I enjoyed Sarah's Scribbles at the end of my 20 years when I could enjoy cute things. Now, when I am older, when I was reading this, it was painful. I can't say how bad I think it was, the humor totally didn't click with me, the art is.. maybe better but somehow not? I really like her simpler sketches. Really big miss for me this time.

Thanks to Netgalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for the advanced copy in exchange for my honest review, and thanks to Sarah Andersen for creating it!

Elsie is a three hundred year old vampire trapped in the body of a twenty six year old. She's seen so much in her long life, but she's never met her match like she has with Jimmy. Jimmy comes with his own set of issues; he's a werewolf. Can the two make a real go of their relationship, or will their differences outweigh everything they have in common?

What can I say? This was just a fun, lighthearted take on the vampire/werewolf relationship. Some of the pages had me laughing so hard. I loved the art style and just everything about this. I am a huge fan of vampires in general and it was just the nicest read I've had in a while.

I've been following this story on Tapad and really loved it, so I am very happy that there is going to be a book! :) It focuses on the relationship of the vampire girl and a werewolf and it's terrific. I really like the humour and little hints wrapped in pretty artwork. The best thing about this book is that they deal with normal relationship stuff with not-so-normal conditions and it's pure gold.

Sarah Anderson has done it again, Another funny and, heartwarming read. I found her other comics to be slightly funnier only because I think they are more relatable. Never the less Ms. Andersons take on the classic supernatural beings about a vampire and a werewolf falling in love. is funny, romantic and brimming with cliché moments everyone will sure to love.

A cute and funny comic about a vampire and werewolf who fall in love. I found myself laughing out loud several times throughout reading this. It's full of very funny moments with the root coming from classic vampire and werewolf cliches and stereotypes. There's also a lot of heart-warming-fuzzy-feelings moments which shows how compatible our two characters are even though they're very different. The illustration style is also really great which makes for a very easy and enjoyable read.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the eARC. Fangs is a cute, quick read about a vampire who falls in love with a werewolf. Featuring an adorable drawing style, Sarah Andersen created two characters that I instantly liked. I really enjoyed the story that Andersen created between the two characters, even with so little dialogue. If you're looking for a cute heartwarming read, this is it.

I'd like to thank the publisher and netgalley for providing me a copy of this book.
I have read all of Sarah's previous books and I'm a huge fan of her work. Unfortunately, I didn't love this as much a I thought I would.

I am a big fan of Anderson’s comics and this one did not disappoint me at all. It is so awesome!

It´s sweet. It´s cute. It´s funny. It´s quirky.

It´s everything I had not known I wanted when I was seventeen, reading YA vampire novels, and now, 12 years later I am laughing out loud. I wish I was a vampire dating a werewolf myself.

And the style is simplistic, yet gorgeous.

I got an e-ARC on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Fangs was a cute read for me. It's comical and it lifts the spirits. Fangs is imagining what life would be like if a werewolf and a vampire got together in present-day life and I enjoyed it immensely. It read like a comic strip and not a cohesive story but I found that format was enjoyable.

This is such a fun book! The illustrations are fantastic, and the vampire/werewolf puns are just perfect. It’s a warm-hearted read, with some laugh out loud scenes as well as some cute romantic moments. I don’t usually go for graphic novels, but I thoroughly enjoyed this one.

My thanks to the author, NetGalley, and the publisher for the arc to review.
