Debbie Tung and I would have a LOT to talk about if we ever met in real life.
This is such a cute, sweet, and charming collection of adorable comics that every book lover is sure to both adore and identify with. I laughed and nodded knowingly so many times. I could identify with so much of what Tung writes and draws about in this book. It's lovely and sweet.

I received this book from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.
I just HAD to get this book. I am a giant bookworm, and so I couldn’t resist a book called Book Love. Plus this cover just shouted at me. That is exactly me, reading between stacks of big books!
And then I started reading and I fell further in love with the book. This author is a giant book worm, just like me! Eep! Every page has a comic/illustration, and I related to all of them. It doesn’t happen often that I relate so much to something, but I did with this one. Buying books while needing food? Yessirree. Reading at a party? That is me!
I have to say that apparently I read quite a few of these already, as I recognise most of them. Not sure where I read them, maybe Twitter? Still I had fun reading them again, and also discovering several new ones.
I also had a laugh at when she either accidentally spoiled someone or when someone spoiled her. I know the feelings on both accounts. I always try to keep out of spoilers, but sometimes one can just slip out. And then there is the internet with all its spoilers and people expecting you to just read a book immediately.
The art was pretty decent. I guess it may look better in a book, but on my e-copy it looked a bit blurry and grainy at times.
All in all, a highly recommended book to all bookworms in the world!

What an absolutely delightful assortment of comics drawn by Debbie Tung regarding what else? ... a book lover's love of books. I found myself nodding and smiling at every single page. It's a wonderful gift to give a book lover and one you'll want to keep for yourself to return to again and again ... it's the perfect feel-the-love-of-books read! 🤗

I always love Debbie Tung's art style. It just reminds me of the comic books I used to read when I was little. And the way of story telling is also really interesting. It took me less than half an hour to read this book, and I just surfed through it so quickly. I love this book. It contains everything I love about books & being a reader.

"Books can take you to magical places."
Reading this honestly made me so elated! The art style was really cute, and it brought this kind of homey feeling with every turn of the page. I'm excited to read more by this author in the future.
