Esse livro é um carinho no coração, a calmaria em um momento agitado... A simplicidade de como as coisas são retratadas, e coisas que podem passar batido, mas que são demonstrações de amor também, aí tô apaixonada por esse livro ❤️

4.5 stars.
I received this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
When I saw this on Netgalley I knew I had to get this one, the description sounds super adorable, and it sounded like something that I would like (since I also have a boyfriend).
The comic/graphic novel is about the life of Philippa Rice, how she met her boyfriend, how they started living together and how they grew together. It was immensely adorable and a lot of situations were familiar to me. Like the sleeping positions, I am sure that is how we end up as well. Or me curling up close to him while reading a book, and us playing a game together.
So I had lots of fun reading this little book. Yes, little, because it is only 108 pages, of which quite a few pages just contain one picture. And with that I was kind of disappointed. I expected more comics/more illustrations, and I was a bit disappointed. So here I am hoping that there will be a book 2, with more comics/illustrations.
I did like the colours though. You have 3 main colours: Black, White and Orange/Red. This might sound simplistic, but I think it fitted and brought out the story more. I also think it was pretty creative to only use 3 colours. Of course I love more colours, but you don't often find a book in just a few colours, so I am always happily surprised when one does.
The characters were fun and I really enjoyed reading about their lives and their interests.
All in all, I am thinking of buying this book when it comes out in paperback.

I love this because it's love. :3 The situations made me smile and the illustrations were really good. I wonder how she decided what to put in red and what to put in black though.
Spoiler
My favourite scene is the one where she comes back with 2 milkshakes and an apology. Idk it reminds me of the feelings I get when I know I've done something wrong and I want to apologise but I'm scared to too.holdonkrn's review

Me gustó mucho este cómic cortito donde la autora nos muestra anécdotas de ella con su pareja de una forma muy simple y bonita. Lo terminé en un ratito y lo recomiendo si es que quieres algo ligero y cute. No le puse cuatro estrellas solo porque lo sentí muy cortito y no quería que se acabara tan pronto, de repente se terminó y dije "queeeee??? ya es todo??🥺" JAJAJA Pero definitivamente leelé los demás comics que tiene la autora.
