This is exactly what I needed today, to read a really cozy and cute comic.
Milk and Mocha brought me so much comfort today it felt like receiving a nice and warm hug on a cold day!
The illustrations were so cute, I couldn’t stop smiling the whole time I was reading it and the little stories were so much fun, this became a comfort read, I will definitely be rereading when I need a little happiness in life!

"What does happiness mean to you?"

For half an hour, the time spent with this book! Its comics were so cute and relatable, I couldn't do anything but thinking about my significant other.

Thank you to Melanie Sie and Andrews McMeel Publishing for letting me read this cute and adorable little comic.

This collection is just cuteness overload. As someone who’s previously read a few Milk and Mocha comics here and there I have nothing to say except that I need more Milk and Mocha (and Matcha of course, can’t forget the cutest dino pet in the world) in my life.

This comic is definitely a must read for anyone looking for a cute short comic with adorable art and loveable characters and I’ll definitely run and buy a Milk and Mocha comic book the next time I’m at my local comic shop.

The cover piqued my interest. Super cute graphics and story. The comics are fun slice of life glimpses, and many were relatable. Loved it!

Milk and Mocha are two very different but equally adorable bears. They also have a tiny dino fren, Matcha. This is a collection of short comics about their life and relationship. I think most people will see themselves as a Milk or a Mocha. I am the Milk to my husband’s Mocha. 🥰 In some ways, it reminds me of Sarah Scribbles comics in its relatability, but this is cutesier and floofier.

While not every comic landed for me, MANY of them made me chuckle and smile. They are just incredibly sweet and really capture the everyday life of couples who just exist companionably. Milk is a dramatic, clingy chatterbox, while Mocha is calmer, quieter, and altogether more reserved.

This little book is very shareable and giftable. It looks like the physical copy comes with stickers, which will be insanely cute, I’m sure! I do wish it was a little longer because I hope there is more where this came from!

Those who have followed Milk & Mocha on line and enjoyed them, will be delighted to grab this collection. While I honestly can’t say that I loved all of the comics, I did find some of them to be sweet.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for this title. All opinions are my own.

Cute and for all ages. Milk, Mocha and Macha have my heart. Milk & Mocha remind me of my fiance and myself... especially with the food. I would love to read another series with this trio.

Soooo cute and adorbs! I dare you to pick this up and not smile.

Honestly I was skeptical at the start and didn't get every single comic, especially since the text is minimal. But Milk & Mocha just grew on me. Their relationship is so sweet and I loved the meet-cute. There's just something so precious about them and this collection.

A quick and lovely read that will warm you right up!

Milk & Mocha Comics Collection by Melani Sie was the most adorable and healing thing I've read in a long time. It's basically a collection of four panel comics about two cute bears and their loving relationship, also their pet dragon.

The art made you want all the comfort squeezes, food, and pats, while still being very relatable and sweet. Highly recommend for anyone and everyone, 10/10!

Milk and Mocha bring nothing but gentle sweetness and delightful joy in this comic collection.

While the comics can be disjointed, the overall story of love and care is there in abundance. Can be read quickly or slowly.

Finally, I got to know how Milk & Mocha met with each other. I’ve been following this slice-of-life webcomic on IG for a few years, and it’s still so heartwarming to read about the bear duo's adventures and their chemistry. Plus, it’s a good book to destress with its cuteness and sweetness, bringing a smile to your day.

Congratulations to the Indonesian author, Melanie Sie for her debut comic collection ❤️

Absolutely adorable. Easily one of my favorite graphic novels this year. It isn’t filled with too many words but the drawings tell the story. The characters are adorable and relatable. It made me laugh, smile and chuckle and relate hard to most of the scenes. Absolutely love this and hope there are more books with Milk and Mochi! I received an ARC digital copy for review.

This comic was so sweet! I love a good cozy graphic novel, and Milk and Mocha are really cute! I think Matcha was my favorite though 😄 The comics didn’t have a particular plot, and it was more like a collection of comic strips, like some comics you would find on Instagram. Keep that in mind if those sorts of graphic novels don’t appeal to you, but if you want a relaxing slice-of-life book, you just might want to pick this one up!
(Also several of the comics were surprisingly relatable)

What an adorable little book about what life would be like if a little white extrovert bear lived with and loved a VERY introvert, nonverbal, brown bear and all the craziness that ensues. Add the adoption of an adorable pet dino and you have a really cute comic that shows the ups and downs of life of an extrovert and an introvert and all they have to deal with. Lovely illustrations, lovely scenarios, this book just left me with ALL good feelings and also left me wanting more.
For a lovely light read that will fill you with all the good feels, I highly recommend you check this adorable graphic novel out.

I've always been a fan of Sie's comics, and I've seen many of them on Instagram. However, these comics bring so much more life to the characters. They are very relatable with couples, especially Asian couples, and bring forth a subtle culture of relationships to light. The book is a very easily digestible collection of comics, and I look forward to Sie's other works in the future.

I recognized Milk & Mocha from things I’ve seen online so that’s what drew me to the cover, but the inside is just perfect. Very sweet, wholesome, relatable adorable bears in love who are just the cutest.

I could read this a million times.

I loved it.
