A quick read about some relationship moments portrayed through conversation hearts. It's a cute trope, and there were definitely some that had me exhale air a little too fast out of my nose. However, most of them were cringy, and not really in an incredibly entertaining way.

I received this book from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review!

The second volume of the candy hearts and I just LOVED every bit of it. I was so hyped when I spotted this book up on Netgalley. I really loved the first book back in 2020 and I am happy that after 4 years there is a new book full of these candy hearts. Full of humour, relatability, OMG that is so true, and more. I read this one partially at home, and partially while at the bar with friends (yes, my ADHD at times needs to tune out a bit, and my friends know this and don't mind). I shared some of these with my hubby and my bestie and it made both of them laugh and totally agree.
I love that the book is split up in various sections. First normal candy hearts and their stuff, followed by Tinder/dating app stuff, after that more candy hearts but now with dating/relationships, and it is time to move in together, some more candy hearts doing their thing, and then lastly time to get married! I had so much fun and I wouldn't have minded if the book was longer. Hopefully there will be many more books like this because I need more (and my hubby and bestie wouldn't mind some more either). Recommended!

This short and sweet comic collection is full of funny and relatable tidbits. From online dating to marriage and everything in between, anyone will find humor in these pages. The candy heart concept is unique and fresh and is executed well. This would be a perfect gift for a friend or partner.
Thanks to Andrews McMeel and NetGalley for the ARC in trade for an honest review.

I really loved this book! It’s funny, relatable, heartfelt, and I love how it speaks to so many truths about being human in general. A small number of comics were sad, but they really rounded out the book because I think they made me think more about the themes being explored and how we often hide truths about ourselves from each other in relationships. For the most part though, I laughed my way through the comics and even came across one I’d seen before in the wild on Pinterest! My favorites were Adam & Eve, IKEA, Long Distance, Smoke Alarm Cooking, and Just Boring Enough. 🥰 Would highly recommend as a coffee table book for a fun laugh to lift your spirits! I’ll be looking forward to revisiting it in the future!

I found this graphic novel extremely funny and current (The Mario Bros part!). Very original to make the candies talk. I loved it. Thanks to Netgalley, and the author for the chance of reading this book in advance!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an electronic copy to read in exchange for an honest review.

This is adorable. And accurate. And hilarious. A great little book that depicts what we are all really thinking.

A fun easy read, I love Siegel's work online before I read this book but was still enjoying the comics. Great for a one-time read or coffee-table book.
