eatingfiction's review against another edition
I've never been into Adventure Time, but I randomly picked this up in my brothers room and read through it all. Cute, funny, and a nice break from the intense stuff I've been reading.

Fun-filled collection of Adventure Time shorts, most of which somehow relate to desserts, sugar, and overall sweetness. This is the first in the Sugary Shorts series that I have read and I enjoyed it.
As with the other Adventure Time comics I have read, there is a nice diversity in the stories and artwork featured in this collection. Each story is very unique and fun. I can honestly say there wasn't a single story in this collection that I didn't like.
Some of my personal favorites were [a:Luke Pearson|4461106|Luke Pearson|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1355503804p2/4461106.jpg]'s (no surprise there- love you, Hilda!)

To be honest I picked this book up at the library thinking it was the third volume in the regular [b:Adventure Time Comics Vol. 1|30312568|Adventure Time Comics Vol. 1|Art Baltazar|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1513298824l/30312568._SY75_.jpg|50799363] series (I was in a hurry, okay?). But after reading it, I am glad I did pick it up. Although now I have very another Adventure Time series to get through. Oh well, such is life.

A good collection of Adventure Time shorts. I didn't enjoy this book as much as [b:Adventure Time: Sugary Shorts Vol. 3|34228051|Adventure Time Sugary Shorts Vol. 3|Ian McGinty|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1506854917l/34228051._SY75_.jpg|55281806], but it was still entertaining. The artwork was all amazing of course. I just didn't connect with as many of the actual stories. Plus, I was really missing Fionna and Cake.
As weird as it was, I did enjoy "A Dish Best Served Gross" by [a:Josh Tierney|1820099|Josh Tierney|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png].

Overall, a good collection. I still found it entertaining. For some reason it just didn't resonate with me as much as the previous collection. I will definitely continue to read books in the series though. Very entertaining.

This graphic novel was, as the title suggests, short and sweet! It contained many different short stories by different artists/writers and I really loved dipping into different styles and takes on the Adventure Time world. Lots of the stories were winter/snow themed. Even though it’s volume 3, it wouldn’t need to be read in any order because it doesn’t relate to anything else. I recommend this series of graphic novels wholeheartedly!

Wonderful artwork and quirky stories... I didn't like having to flip the pages horizontally though for the Fionna and Cake stories
