I received a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for feedback
This was a fun little book. Highlighting hidden relationship clashes and conflicts through candy heart messages is a super creative idea, and it was both a little sad and entertaining to read. I especially enjoyed the Star Wars themed panel.

These cartoons reminded me so much of Nathan Pyle's "Strange Planet" comics. They are hilarious and oh-so relatable (despite the jokes being conveyed through candy hearts).
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for a digital copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinions.

This was a pretty fun collection of silly comics. Some were hilarious, while some others were just so-so. Overall enjoyable.

Such a cute giftable book! This would be a great wedding shower gift or even a Valentine's gift! The quotes are extremely relatable and humorous!

I am a big fan of Tommy Siegel, and this book did not disappoint. Every page was better than the next. I found myself laughing page after page, and nodding my head. I would highly recommend it for yourself or someone that has a great sense of humor! If you have Instagram, definitely follow him his content is awesome.

Thanks for this copy Netgalley!
I love the art style! I thought it was only gonna be filled with generic candy hearts but there are a few surprises inside. The panels are mostly hilarious and relatable to a certain age group (to which I am in). A handful of misses and mehs but still a pretty enjoyable read over all.

Reading this one without any expectations and turned out it is really funny!! I ever saw some of the comic strips somewhere. Those Candy Hearts are like revealing the truth behind some awkward moments. I got attacked because I found it relatable with my experience.
This book is a quick read. Only 100ish pages with comics. I guess you can read it in one sitting.
Thank you NetGalley for the ARC!

"Are we too boring?... Nope just boring enough."
Surprisingly cute, short, and sweet, with just enough humor to make you want to sit and read each comic back to back in a sitting.

This was stupidly cute and laugh-out-loud hilarious. I love how every heart was tailored for a different scenario and I could easily picture that scenario playing out.

Amazing! I immediately went and bought Tommy's other books. I saw myself in some of these Candy hearts (I maybe a walking red flag). I will be ordering this book for myself and for others. This is a great, cute, and quick read. A book for every millennial!

Thanks Netgalley and publisher but am I the only one who doesn’t really get it? I honestly don’t know the point of the convos with the hearts unless it was certain topics but yeah it didn’t feel nothing to me…

The Secret Lives of Candy Hearts is a delightful collection of comics. They are not only funny but also super relatable!
I breezed through this comic in one sitting, and it was such a delight! It’s light-hearted and had me chuckling quite a bit. The story dives into relationships, dating, and marriage, touching on those moments we can all relate to. I especially got a kick out of the online dating profile—it really made me laugh!
The book was a quick and easy read, featuring simple and colourful illustrations.

What if everything we were thinking were on our faces like love hearts? That it what this graphic novel shows us. They take situations like the stages of sling asleep, weddings, and wedding planning, and shows how weird the minds of different people can be in the exact same moment. Some of the pages were soo funny, and I found myself chuckling and laughing to myself a little. But other times they just completely missed the mark, and I was sitting more confused than amused.
Thank you so much to NetGalley and the publisher for giving me a free copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.

3.5 stars.
The Secret Lives of Candy Hearts is a fun entry to Tommy Siegel's little candy heart world. There's some solidly funny stuff in this one, and I had some good laughs. It's a fun read for anyone who enjoys Tommy Siegel's humour and wants something quick to read.

This was a good collection of silly little one pane comics about candy hearts. The story of each pane is told through the text on the hearts. The art style was visually appealing, but overall this wasn't for me. It would likely make a good coffee table book.

I loved the illustrations in this book!
I read this in one sitting last night and it had me smiling as I went through the book and I did have a few giggles - it would also make a great gift
It was light-hearted, funny and it was just what I needed as a pick me up after having caught the dreaded winter bug that is knocking about.
I wanted something quick and easy to read and this certainly ticked those boxes.
I loved the mix of topics from online dating through to marriage - and I could really associate with some of the illustrations as well (just don't tell my husband that!).
It is 5 stars from me for this one - a fab book and very highly recommended!

This is a super funny book of comics using Candy Hearts to express his hilarious observations about relationships and man every comic was just spot on funny.
Thanks to Andrews McMeel Pub and Netgalley for the complimentary copy of this book. All opinions in this review are my own.

Overall, super cute and quick read with laughs too! Reminded me of Heart and Brain comics.
The concept of conversation hearts sharing our inner workings is entertaining, and definitely relatable. The pop culture references also brought added comedy. My favorite by far were anytime an animal or bystander had something they needed to say- they almost always had me giggling.
Definitely makes me want to check out Tommy Siegel s other works.

Tommy Siegel has a great sense of humor. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in contemporary comics.

I’ve seen a few of these comics and was delighted to find this book! I enjoyed reading it and could relate to many of the issues discussed.
