Fangs is a short story of a romance between a vampire and wolf. It’s a story of loving each other for who they are and just being themselves without any ulterior motives or any other reasons. The comfort of being in each other’s company and loving them for who they really are.

It was a fun story that I read in one sitting. I love the illustrations; it was very beautifully illustrated, and I really enjoyed the short amount of time as I spent reading this book. That sometimes there’s really nothing better than to find a significant other who gets you, would act weird with you and love each other for all of eternity.

Sarah Andersen is mostly known for her comic 'Sarah's Scribbles'. This time, she wrote/drew a comic about a vampire falling in love with a werewolf. A unique love story combined with humor.

The drawings are simple, but fully reflect the style which Sarah Andersen is so known for. I loved the little details and how she played with light. The drawings are black and white, but she managed to make clear when it was day- or nighttime. Similar to the sun shining, or a cloudy day.
It's not really a story, which I find a bit disappointing. They are comics related to love and inside jokes. The book contains a chronologically order from the moment they meet and how their relationship develops.
The graphic novel contains lots of jokes and the humor is great. There were many drawings which made me laugh.

This graphic novel was a light and funny read. The story had showed opposites attract and had made fun of the stereotypes of vampires and werewolves. If you want a simple, funny story, this book is perfect for you.

Thank you for the publisher and Netgallery for the ARC.

Fangs is the cute and funny graphic novel tale of the unlikely romance between Elsie the vampire, and Jimmy, the hot werewolf she meets in a bar. It's a story about what happens when you get involved with someone so different from yourself but end up finding that sometimes opposites really are the best pairings.

The simplistic black and white drawings allow the visuals to tell just as much of a story as the words do without the feeling of needing more. It's the perfect coffee table book to pop open when you feel like having a little heartwarming smile. Personally, I couldn't get enough and was disappointed when I reached the end. It was funny, cute, and relatable, and this is one of those rare books I would love to own in hardcover.

Oh...My...Goodness!! This is so cute! Vamp meets Werewolf - Love ensues! Fangs is a collection of short comics telling the love story of Elsie and Jimmy and it is adorable. The simple art style fits with the funny puns and had me giggling throughout. Each panel is cute but the progression of their love story is what really makes this comic shine. If I was a person prone to book crushes I would be crushing on both of these characters!

I want your love, I mean BLOOD! Fangs is a cute and spooky comic by Sarah Andersen, who's talent shines through with her deceptively simple art style! I love Sarah's way of drawing a scene; in her case, it's quite true that a picture is worth a thousand words. Sarah's humor is witty and well done, sometimes it sneaks right up on you! The budding romance between a wolf-man named Jimmy and lady-vamp Elsie is a breath of fresh air for the vampire/werewolf genre, and an entertaining read to boot! Fangs was a quick read, but left me wanting more!

I am definitely not the target audience for this one. I chuckled a few times, but other than that I almost didn't finish it.

Fangs by Sarah Anderson is a nice graphic novel showing that even a vampire and a werewolf can fall in love. Seeing their individual struggles with their conditions, and how they support each other made for a lovely tale of romance between two unexpected companions. I can already picture a few of my students who will enjoy this book come fall.

Just finished it and totally LOVED it!! It is so cute, their relationship, the llittle jokes, and I love how the author plays with what we tipically know about this two creatures, werewolves and vampires, and mixed it in something it is not regularly seen, a cumple conformed by the two of them.
I really liked that they get a long so well, and they accept each other for who they trully are. Having a non conventional, but loving relationship.
It´s really easy to get hoocked, and fast to read. Great for that moments when you don´t have much time, but still you want to read something good.
10/10 would recommend.

Absolutely adorable! I laughed out loud literally multiple times. Sarah Anderson's illustrations are clean and beautiful. The stories were quirky and like small bites of sweet goodness. A five star graphic novel for lovers of horror classics.

Super cute and funny book. I love Sarah's art style and have for years. I've been seeing some of the images online and when I saw this book of Netgalley, I jumped at the chance to read and review it and I wasn't let down at all.

I had seen parts of this comic floating around tumblr, and was very excited to read the the compiled book.
New relationships can be a little monsterous. From worrying your boyfriend is more in love with the moon than you, to the concern that your girlfriend still visits her exes in the cemetery. Where she put them.
Dark and absolutely delightful, I read this one straight through. My only complaint - I wish there was more!

This was a really cute and quick read! I like Sarah's Scribbles and this is some of the same with the only sort of connected vignettes and similar no color line work (though this is less cartoon-y). Just a sweet collection of funny stories about a werewolf and vampire dating and the unique situations that could lead to. Lots of situational humor with vampire/werewolf myths that really worked for me.

How would it be if a She-Vampire and a He-werewolf were to have a romantic relationship? Well, Fangs is the best way to explain it! Dark but sweet, bloody and hairy all together, the short episodes will give you enough hints as to how would love be for the supernaturals. Even though some of the illustrations were simple in design, the ideas presented are very powerful. Wish the author hadn't skipped the "getting to know each other" steps, so we could spend more time with the characters. One question left, is there going to be more volumes? I’ll die for more!

Okay first of all, i haven't read any books or comics related to vampire-werewolf love except for twilight. But this one is amazing!!!
The illustrations are so nice and it was such a cute love story between Jimmy and Elsie. This book showed all about love and care given by a person to his/her partner to be with them at all times no matter what/who they are.
Overall, I loved it and i would surely recommend it to everyone who is in search of a cute love story.

Sarah Anderson’s works are always a joy to read and this one is no exception. Here, the author depicts the love story between a werewolf and a vampire in a very sweet and funny way. I enjoyed all the jokes this comic provided. This story is just adorable and very quick to read, I really recommend it.

Sarah Scribbles has been on my TBR list for a long time, but when I got the opportunity to read her newest about the relationship between a werewolf and a vampire, I thought it might push me to finally pick up her previous books. Unfortunately this really didn’t work for me. It was a bunch of snippets from their life together rather than a story, and it didn’t make me feel anything like I want from graphic novels, either through the dialogue or the art.

Thanks to the author and publisher for giving me a free copy in exchange for an honest review!

Y'all I love books featuring vampires and werewolves! When I saw this one on NetGalley, I immediately went to GoodReads to read some reviews. Almost everyone seemed to absolutely love this one, so I had high expectations. This was a really quick and enjoyable read, but that's it. It's just little glimpses of their life. I expected a full on love story and not just these little glimpses. I would recommend reading this one if you're looking for a fun quick read in between.

Very cute and quick read for paranormal lovers. I enjoyed the drawings and overall narrative. I would reccomend to lovers of this genre.

Fangs tells the story of a vampire girl and a werewolf who fall in love. They consider themselves monsters so they have a lot in common.
It's short but very sweet and with funny and ironic scenes. The drawings are quite simple but also very cute.

This is narrated in small independent scenes put all together, it's not the regular "introduction, conflict, resolution, end" plot story. It's more like a diary but told from the pov of the author.

I really enjoyed reading this cute comic, the couple are so beautiful and adorable together. I really recommend it and hope this gets a second part.
