So damn adorable! It’s just two bears living their life and it made me really happy. It’s no real plot and mostly short little comics! go check it out!

Thank you, Netgalley and publisher, for the arc in exchange for an honest review.

I hadn't heard of this author or these comics before seeing this book, and I'm so grateful to have read it. This comic collection is so adorable! I found most of it to be relatable, and I enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to getting my hands on the physical copy when it's released on the 25th of July!

Too cuteeeee!!!

I always love to see Milk & Mocha's story. So when I found this eARC available on NetGalley, I immediately download and read it in one sitting. I love the story of when Milk met Mocha for the first time. Love when Milk found Matcha. I love everything actually.

Thank you so much Melani Sie for creating them!

Thank you, NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for this wonderful eARC!

I love the Milk & Mochar Comics collection! It's simple and cute, and they remind me of my relationship because I sent a lot of Tik Toks of Milk & Mocha to my boyfriend. It was a quick read because I enjoyed it so much that I had to get through it in one sitting.

THANKS TO NETGALLEY FOR THIS REVIEW COPY IN EXCHANGE FOR AN HONEST REVIEW.

Illustration is so adorable. This is reserve and clingy trope which was cute.

This was such a cute book. I can’t wait to purchase this for a friend in the future. It’s a perfect gift for anyone who enjoys a really quick and easy comic read. I think adding some more captions or dialogue would make it more engaging. However, I understand it’s up for interpretation and the message was cute regardless.

OMGGG!! This was so cute!! I didn't realize this was a webcomic!! But now I definitely want to get a copy for my kids! I really loved how adorable and feels-good these little comics were. Many were repetitive in the sense that they told the same "story" but it was done in such a cute way that, honestly, I don't mind! AHHHH!!

When I request to read an ARC of comic collections it is usually from an artist I am already familiar with; however, that wasn't the case this time. I was just scrolling through NetGalley and the adorable cover caught my attention. It did not disappoint to read an ARC of this collection for a review. Every comic was adorable and relatable. Milk & Mocha are so precious!! And we cannot forget the pet dino Matcha. I found myself and my other half in every comic I read. The comics are cute, quirky, and also funny. I will be following the artist on IG from now on. I cannot wait to see more comics. Thank you to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This book was absolutely adorable. Milk and Mocha was cute little bears that had cute little stories about love, home life, adventures and finding a new pet. The graphics were cute for little children as well as for adults. This was a quick read for me but, I could a child taking longer to enough the pictures.

Very cute and chill comic about the daily life. Very episodic. There was missing some overall storyline in my opinion because the individual comics ended up being very repetitive and a little too simple. Nevertheless it’s a fun and wholesome look into love in the mundane life.

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the early copy!

Milk & Mocha (and matcha) are so incredibly cute! These short comics tell such a story with barely any dialog use at all and I think its very clever how the author/artist is able to do that. Each page is like a cute story taken from someones life and relationship, what theyve learned and how theyve lived and its really enjoyable to read.

The art style is really sweet and the colors are really soft and pleasant to look at. Overall this is a really enjoyable collection!

My daughter and I really loved the book but there were some pages that didn't make sense to us. She thought it was adorable and loved reading it at bedtime

This is such a sweet little book for all ages. A perfect coffee table book for those who like cute things. Milk and mocha are the most loving, funny little characters ever. The art is beautiful. And the emotions come across instantly in these one page stories. I'm now a fan of this artist and her future works.

Only thing is that I wish the stories were laid out in a slightly more sequential order. The formatting is what makes it feel more like a kids or coffee table book, than a true story.

I really loved the artwork! It was so cute. These were couple goals. If you haven't read this, you should most definitely read it. I could not contain how adorable this book was.

I thought this was going to be a other normal manga, but it was not. I like when they found Machta it was so cute.

This review of Milk & Mocha Comics Collection Our Little Happiness by Melani Sie is courtesy of NetGalley.
Rating 4/5 #MilkMochaComicsCollection #NetGalley

I'd seen pictures of the cute Milk & Mocha when folks on Discord used images (illegally!) to respond to other people but never read the comics before. Due to the cuteness, when I saw the collection come up for review on NetGalley I decided to pick it up.

It started with a text introduction. The introduction started with the question "What does happiness mean to you?" and made me wonder if this collection would be like the Peanuts "Happiness Is ..." style comic books. I'd say the comic has generally heart warming scenes rather than scenes of happiness.

The scenes are of Milk, a white bear, who's in a relationship with a brown bear, Mocha. Some scenes include their green dino, Matcha. Cute simple color coded character names. Rather than musical notes you'd see popping up between Schroeder's piano that Snoopy would interact with, there are hearts that manifest if various ways between Milk and Mocha.

I liked it overall but felt that sequence wise it went backwards, from scenes between the two bears, to them acquiring their pet, and then backwards to how they met.

The art is totally cute. This wholesome humor. It works so well because it is a reflection of our own lives in these cute creatures.

Thank you for this ARC.
This is such a cute book. A collection of drawings and skits of two lovable bears. I definitely connected to Mocha and what his life is like. Completely hilarious, enjoyable and lovable. Any one will connect with this book and collection of a new story on each page.

Honestly, what more could you want from the sweetest and cutest bear couple out there? Milk and Mocha: Our Little Happiness collects a bunch of comics of the bear pair into something that is an instant serotonin boost if you need it. The little comic showing how they met was a nice addition as well.

I think if you don't already enjoy Milk & Mocha but you like cute things or simply need a happy boost, this comic collection is definitely worth it.
