Laugh out loud and macabre, sometimes at the same time, this is sure to appeal to teens and adults who like a little snark with their romance or appreciate subtle and visual humor.

Such a delightful romance to read! I read Sarah Andersen's other comics and this one was just as good. Who knew that a romance could be be form between a werewolf and a vampire? Anderson shows us and it is downright adorable!
This is such a wholesome, fun book about a werewolf and a vampire falling in love. Focusing on small comedic snapshots of their life together. Although not a long or particularly deep read it was one I very much enjoyed, I'd recommend people pick this up if they'd like some cute fluff in their life.
There isn't a huge amount to say other than that I enjoyed the light-hearted wholesome way they acted together. The humour was fun and it made me smile throughout.
Did you ever date another werewolf? Yeah, cute girl but could turn into a real bitch.
And did you ever date a vampire? Yeah! He sucked.
in the mood for a quick graphic novel, I picked this up on a whim and was not disappointed. A series of vignettes depicting a budding relationship between a vampire and a werewolf, this little book really made me smile. Unlike the paranormal romance of olde, this is a healthy, constructive relationship between two pun-loving, consenting adults. The jokes were clever and the simple, monochromatic art was delightful. I was amazed at how quickly Andersen was able to convey these characters and how effortlessly she wormed them into my heart. I will say that some of the scenes felt a bit unfinished and confusing, but the non-narrative structure of this story made those small flubs easy to move past. Though not the most memorable or life-changing read, this is definitely well worth the time it takes to read it.
I adored this book.
It's a slice of life comic following the romantic misadventures of Elsie the vampire (300 but looks 26) and Jimmy the werewolf (hipstery looking guy who has a girlfriend, he s w e a r s).
Somehow Andersen has maintained her comedic timing from her comics as Sarah Scribbles, but matured to match the lighter, more detailed art style.
I just loved this, and will be picking up a copy when I can (and have room).
Thanks to Netgalley for letting me read a copy in exchange for an honest review.
I love this book! It is clever and funny, even some of the jokes that have been done before somehow have new life. Really hoping there are more books with these characters.
This was a super quick, super cute romance between a vampire and a werewolf. Rather than following a plot as I anticipated, it offers snapshots of the life Elsie (the vamp) and Jimmy (the werewolf) lead together. I really enjoyed myself while reading this, and several panels made me laugh (like REALLY LAUGH) out loud. I also enjoyed the art style; black and white graphic novels aren't usually my jam but it really worked with the aesthetics of the characters. I did feel like we were tossed into the romance too soon and would have liked a panel or two of both characters before they met each other as a better introduction.
This delightful graphic novel by Sarah Andersen depicts the everyday dating life of Elise and Jimmy, a vampire and a werewolf. Rather than being continuous, each page is a new snapshot of their life together. It's a little corny, very cute, and far too short.
Fangs by Sarah Andersen is a short but delightful graphic novel of the developing relationship between a werewolf and a vampire. Originated on the comic platform Tapas this wonderful comic will be bound together into book format and will now be easier for me to get others to read.
It’s so stinking cute, is what it is. Each page is a self contained story but overall it’s their relationship from when they met in a bar through them dating and eventually moving in together. Love, love, love.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher I was able to read this book in exchange for an honest review.
I received this from Netgalley for an honest review. This a Graphic Novel about a love story between a werewolf and a vampire. It was super corny but it made me laugh so I didn't hate it. It had a lot of dry humor.
This book was funny! This book is about a romance between a werewolf and a vampire and including all of the classic tropes. I loved how it was told in quick panels as time goes on, and that it had so much personality. I was sad when it ended, so I hope there will be more!
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for letting me read this one early!
Utterly delightful. Super-cute, vampire-girl meets werewolf-boy, snapshots of life graphic novel. Told with Sarah Andersen's typical insight and humor.
Elsie is a 300-year old vampire who meets Jimmy, a werewolf, at a bar. They date and fall in love. And learn to live with their particular differences.
One favorite snapshot... Elsie with a list of Pros and Cons for "Eat Him/Date Him".

Fangs is a cute and funny graphic novel about the love story between a vampire and a werewolf.
I’ve found the story pretty funny! It doesn’t really have a plot, there’s just various scenes of what the protagonists do daily. But I still like it for a quick read!
A droll romance. Not my cup of tea but some of the gags were excellent but there was no overarching story which is what I look for in my graphic novels. The art is excellent and the characters fully realised. It was fine. It did very much feel like a collection of webcomics and that's no bad thing. Sarah captures relationships moments nicely I just wish it was in service of a something meatier. One for you goth friends with a sense of humour.
This graphic novel was so lovely. It was the perfect blend of gothic, sarcastic, and romantic. I loved the characters. Elsie is who I aspire to be and I love how her and Jimmy's relationship spills onto the pages. The art style is ismple yet gorgeous and I loved every second of it!
Thank you to the publisher and to Netgalley for the advance copy of this book!
I loved this book. The atmosphere was everything I wanted it to be. I loved the plot and storyline in the book. I loved the characters in this story. It gave me all the feels I was looking for when I started reading this. I highly recommend this author. I loved the writing. I will be looking for other works in the future from this author.
Superb! A bite-sized (pun intended) graphic novel imagining a vampire and werewolf in love. Breezy, humorous, and relatable. Loved it! Thanks to NetGalley, Andrews McMeel Publishing, and Sarah Andersen for the ARC!

Elsie is a 300 old Vampire who wasn’t found her match, but that is about to change.
This was such a cute and fun graphic novel! It is incredibly fast to read, and I loved every second of it. I loved reading about the love story of a vampire and a werewolf. It is such an fun concept to read about since we always see these two as enemies. Sarah Andersen never disappoints with her witty characters.
If you are looking for something quick to read that’ll put a smile on your face give this book a go.
Not the best graphic novel I've read but not terrible. It didn't really flow, it was more like a different random scene on each page - there was some funny moments in there which made me laugh, but others that had me eye rolling.
Overall it was okay, I just maybe would have wanted more of an actual storyline and a bit more emotion and substance to it.
While Fangs looks different than the comics Andersen’s better known for, it still remains to be the casually morbid and ‘punny’ humor she’s best at.
Two things I’m certainly enjoying immensely in this collection.
As I only knew of the Sarah’s Scribbles work on Instagram, I wasn’t sure what to expect here. And yet, I was instantly hooked on the situation of pairing a werewolf and a vampire in love. Happily allowing myself to be pulled through their day to day life with all the shenanigans that ensued.
Additionally, this new art style from Andersen is refreshing. It helps distinguish the characters and adds maturity to the work. And in all honesty, I don’t have anything bad to say here. The only reason it didn’t get a full five stars is because it felt just a little too short for the price you would put out for it.
