Genre: Graphic novels, Comics

Review:

I first came across Debbie Tung’s work on Book Love. Her drawings were so much fun and as an introvert, I could relate to a lot of them. I found a kinship to a lot of her scenes which depict introvert tendencies and bookish quirks.

Happily Ever After & Everything In Between illustrates the everyday scenes of introvert Debbie Tung’s married life with her extrovert husband. The drawings were excellent, with the facial expressions spot on. The dialogues and scenes were quirky and witty. I found myself chuckling and laughing out loud at some of the scenes.

A couple’s life is not easy but when you find someone who understands you, who gets you, even the bad days are worth it. Happily Ever After & Everything In Between makes you hope you can achieve that kind of contentment. I loved this book just as much as Book Love.

Synopsis: From the bestselling author of Quiet Girl in a Noisy World and Book Love comes a funny and adorable collection of comics about married life, specifically an introvert married to an extrovert! Debbie Tung’s tender, funny, and utterly relatable comics are the perfect gift for anyone in a relationship. The comics in Happily Ever After & Everything In Between may be inspired by Debbie Tung’s marriage to her extrovert husband, but any couple can relate to increasingly relaxed anniversaries, slowly seeing more of each other’s weird sides, or the punishment for taking care of your sick loved one (catching whatever they had). Happily Ever After humorously captures what everyday love looks like—both the sweet moments and the mundane—making it a fitting gift for weddings, anniversaries, and Valentine’s Day.
