Thank you for the EArc NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing. Thinking of you is a book of sweet reminders that you are not alone and to love yourself. I loved the really cute minimalist illustrations and I felt happy when I finished this book. Quick sweet read for any day when you just feel down.
I love Beth Evans & her work! This book is wonderful- it helps you feel a little less alone in the daily struggles you may experience. I love her illustrations, and how they help you see the lighter side of common struggles & challenges you to find positive ways to push forward!
This book would make a great gift for someone who could use a bit of a boost & reminder that they are not going through life alone.
A light and fun book to read. A lot of quotes can be found online essentially but it still hits the nerve ♡
Okay, like always, first I want to thank NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for allowing me to read this book in a digital format.
I don’t have a lot to say to be honest. But it’s not a bad thing. Because I really enjoyed this book, and I know that it will have its success, because it deserved it. In this book, we have cute drawings with inspirational quotes.
It’s the perfect book to read when you are feeling down or sad. Even when you are happy. No trigger warnings, just beautiful words and cute characters. So yes, I will buy it when it comes out.
This sweet book <3 I've always enjoyed the artwork by Beth Evans and her Instagram. To read this book was such a sweet treat and I adore the simple yet brilliant small messages along with these cute artwork.
I really enjoyed this book and will be continuing to follow BE with her future artistic endeavours.
This was an adorable book. I especially liked the "chapter beginnings" where it was entirely text.
That said I think it was a bit too repetitive - same messages and same illustrations just with different combinations. There were even some sentences and some illustrations that were exactly the same, just a couple pages apart.
Maybe this book will work better as a "coffee table book" where you can just open it randomly and read a single page each time.
All in all, I liked what the author was trying to do and I did feel her warmth and positive energy through it all 😇 I just wish it could have been more refined and/or more interesting.
I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Too many people need this book in their lives. I need a pocketsized version to carry everywhere and to have someone smack me in the face with it every so often. If you're having a bit of a down day or just feeling low - read this book.
Here is a short and sweet collection of various comic strips that are addressed to a special person. You can enjoy reading them for yourself, or think about sharing them with someone else. Some of the comics are uplifting and feel-good, while others serve as a cute love letter to yourself or a special someone. This heartwarming and comforting illustrations that are sure to make you smile. It’s perfect for a quick pick-me-up or a cozy flip-through on a lazy afternoon.
This is a collection of heart-warming comics that feel like a warm hug from a friend. Even if the author doesn’t know us personally, any person who’s adulating in the current year surely can resonate with them.
I’m sure everybody, at some point, has felt like they’re giving their best and yet it is not enough. Sure, the world isn’t mostly fair but these comics are saying that it’s good that you’re trying, even if you don’t have it all figure it out at the moment.
These comics express kindness, self-love, and talk about mental health in a way that feels organic, not like a pep-talk from someone who’s judging. All the contraire.
I think it’s perfect for people who need a bit of an emotional boost. I know it worked well for me.
The cutest collection of comics that provide a little motivation or sometimes some much needed validation. This isn’t a book you’d want to read straight through, but more like picking up on a day you’re feeling crummy, overwhelmed, etc., and just opening anywhere and reading a few pages. Just feels like a warm hug from a friend. I’ll probably be picking up a couple copies to gift.
I'm following her IG account and most of the books content are the same posted. So I think it is a compilation of her works. Her thoughts and drawings uplifts a bad day and continues to inspire that everything's gonna be alright mood. Even though the drawings were plain and simple it catches attention because of the words with it and thus feels cute in a way. Thank you, Beth Evans and Netgalley!
I knew I wanted to read a good graphic novel but oh my goodness I didn't know how much I needed to read THIS graphic novel! It was so cute and wholesome and exactly what I needed after a day of overthinking and over-worrying about things completely out of my control. If anyone needs words of affirmation, a nudge in the right direction, or a little blob on a piece of paper to just tell you you're doing great and that everything's going to be okay, please do yourself a favor a pick this up. Be nice to yourself today and just remember, you're doing your best and that's all anyone can ask of you<3
Thank you to Netgalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for a copy of Thinking of You.
I LOVED this book. It made me feel warm, loved, and safe. The comics are cute and easy to understand, while the prose is lovely, welcoming, and supportive. Flipping open to any random page will grant the reader a piece of warm advice. I highly recommend that everyone checks out this book
I'm putting Thinking of You on my list of books to live on my future coffee table for everyone to read and fall in love with. My hope is that this collection will help with a feeling of safety.

I admit that the title drew me in, but the reassurance kept me going. It's like having your own personal cheer squad. You should put this book somewhere you can re-read it whenever you need a reminder. As someone who deals with constant anxiety, these comics were very relatable, especially her Cycle of Thoughts and Wheel of Worry comics. Throughout the book, she reminds us that we're all just doing our best out there and that sometimes things take time. Every step no matter how small is movement, and we will get there eventually. You're great just as you are, and you shouldn't compare yourself to others.
A cute little motivational book! This feels like the exact kind of thing you gift your loved one (or yourself), if they're feeling down and just need a little pick me up. These graphics are really cute and just a bunch of small motivational phrases.
Based on the title, I was expecting something more sarcastic, but this was a very sincere, sweet book of comics. I do wish there were some more specific examples from the author’s life, as the comics and the sentiments were very vague.
Adorable book filled with inspiration, motivation, and just all around good things. If anyone in your life has depression, anxiety, or struggles with issues of any kind, this is the book for them. Just a page a day of this book could turn a negative attitude upside down.
(4.75/5) brb buying this to send to all my friends and printing out all every page to tape over my desk as encouragement and inspiration!!! I loved this collection and I think at least one (if not many) pages will resonate with any reader.
Fueron puras imágenes con frases para levantar el ánimo. Muy aburrido, si vas a hacer un comic o algo, ponele un poquito de trama.
This is one of the books-that-feel-like-a-hug kinda book. Do I need to say more? Probably no <3
So glad I found it on NetGallery :)
