Milk & Mocha: Our Little Happiness by Melani Sie

5.0

I received this book from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.


I absolutely LOVE Milk & Mocha, so I was excited to see a whole collection of this cute comic on Netgalley. This I had to get!

In this book we follow Milk (a white bear/ice bear) and Mocha (a brown bear) and their lives together. These two are very much in love and we get to see their daily lives with plenty of adorable and cute scenes that made me just go aww so many times. From yummy food, to cute messages, to fun times watching shows. I loved seeing their daily lives and see how adorable they are together. I have to say that I was already sharing these with my hubby (they are perfect as they are so sweet) when I spy them on Twitter, but I have to share even more now with this cute book. I am considering buying the book for him!

And a lot of things are relatable. Yes, I am not a bear, my hubby is quite a bear, but also not a bear. XD Like how Milk flops on Mocha’s lap after a tiring day. Or how one kiss is indeed not enough. Or that one comic that Milk has a big big scary nightmare and wakes up, all startled, then turns to Mocha and clings to them and all is well. I do that as well when I have had a scary dream. And there were more, it was just so cute and so fun.

A lot of the scenes in this book are without words, which works very well because you can clearly see and understand the situation just from the illustrations. Plus, it also works since Mocha cannot speak and communicates solely by signs, like by a tablet.

I loved that we met Matcha, an appropriately named little dragon-like creature that is all green (well, except his spikes, those are yellow). Matcha is a bit of a handful at times, they really seem to love Milk the most. At times I felt a bit for Mocha because they try and Matcha is just growly or angry at them. I am happy that as the story continues we see things mellow out a bit more.

And I am totally happy that we got to see a story about how these two met! SOOOO CUTE!

All in all, are you in the need for something adorable? Love slice of life? Love some cute bears doing cute things? Grab this one~
