I enjoyed Kim Reaper a lot and this series, which chronicles the author's life and relationship is just as cute if not cuter. I mean, there are FOUR cats in this comic people! Also an adorable relationship between a couple of goofy people who truly seem to love each other.

I recommend this comic for people who like banter and poop/farts humour.

This wasn't for me. The art work is cute and consistent, the book is well designed, although it is just a collection of random vignettes put together. What really didn't work for me was the type of humour in this comic - even if I actually laughed with a few of the scenes - I generally found it mean and dirty.

I have followed the author of this comic for a few years now and I love everything she makes.
This book is a compilation of some of the comics she has drawn and posted on Instagram. I found all of these comics so cute and relatable, it shows a lovely in site on her relationship and the silly things that they do with each other.
As much as it is a lovely thing to see every so often on Instagram, being able to read such a book is a lovely thing to keep on the shelf.

Already such a huge fan of Sarah's comics online, was so happy to see she had a book coming out! I totally see myself and my boyfriend in Sarah & Stef, the weird closeness and the cat quirks. So wonderful. Much like Catana
Comics, we've seen some of these before, but I never mind that. I always feel grateful they share their art on Instagram to us for free. Congrats on this great collection, Sarah!

I got an ARC of this book.

I have seen some of these comics before and I generally liked them. I have chuckled and moved on. There were times when I was really amused and even forwarded them on to others. Yet, reading this book just left me majorly disappointed

It appears that every single comic I liked the first dozen times I saw them were included in this book. That isn't a bad thing. The bad thing was those were the only comics that I even mildly liked. This book was just constant poop and fart jokes. I have never enjoyed those jokes, even as a kid. I am just shocked at the sheer number of those jokes. There was no substance at all. There was just poop and fart. That was it. 

There were a few comics that had the potential to be funny, but they were just so overshadowed by everything else that I couldn't enjoy them. There were a few fart jokes about the cats that could have been funny, but there were just so many fart jokes that I was annoyed before they appeared. I don't recommend this book to anyone, unless they have the humor of an eight year old boy (though the eight year old boys I know also wouldn't have found this book funny). 

The only art that stood out to me was the cats. They were consistently cute and I looked forward to seeing them for the most part.

I feel the same way about this comic collection that I do about Catana Comics' collection. I have seen some of Sarah's work before on social media and found it cute and funny. This also got a laugh or two out of me at a couple of bits. However, overall, this trend of comics is super creepy read as a whole volume. It seems so weirdly co-dependent and doesn't appeal to me at all. Maybe I'm heartless and have no human feelings? Also, way too heavy on the fart and poop jokes, and I'm not normally someone who feels that way about fart and poop jokes.

I am already a fan of Sarah Graley and Stef Purenins as I follow their adventures on social. I adore the quirky art style and short, too the point, laugh out loud comics.

There were a number of scenarios in the comics where I see my hubby and myself.

Heartwarming and funny. Ended to soon and made me wanting more.

I don't think I'd recommend it for the LibraryReads but that doesn't mean I didn't like it. This book is so cute! I see a lot of my boyfriend and I in Sarah and Stef so some of these cute little comics hit close to home. I love reading comics about the simple and mundane and this book hits the right notes. Quick read, good for reluctant readers.

This comic made my heart happy as it includes cats, love and farts. I really like the graphics (I already follow the author on instagram (which I recommend 10/10)) and the humour. If you want to giggle on your couch ,with your cat on your lap, read this book! If you don't have a cat, you will still enjoy this book very much!

This had a few relatable frames (cat ownership really creates a common bond and seems to continue to be a solid foundation for humor in art). Some funny parts, but I’ve read others that I like much better so I think it’s a tough comparison. I can see some folks really enjoying this one, for me it was just okay.

I do love seeing an artist pursue their passion so it’s exciting to see the way the author is working to get into the graphic novel/comics world.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

What’s not to love, the two main characters are adorable and let’s not forget the four cats - Who can resist them!

Thanks to the publishers for sharing this one. I found it easy to relate to. My full review appears on Weekend Notes.

I received an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review; I am also interviewing the creator for The Beat.

Sarah Graley's diary comics are so fun and super #relatable, so seeing them collected in one volume made for a wildly fun read. I really like Graley's other comics, as well, but my first exposure to her work was through the strips about her cats, her shared love of pizza, and her partner Stef. I was instantly hooked, and that hasn't changed a bit. If you're a fan of comics like Kate Beaton, you'll very likely love this — I highly recommend grabbing a copy!

Oh. My. God. Y'all, my freaking RIBS hurt. I've always loved Sarah's webcomics, but this collection was the best of the best and I seriously laughed so hard through the entire book. Sarah and Stef remind me SO much of myself and my spouse, and I literally was just making my poor spouse look at so many of these comics like, "Look! It's us!" If you can't relate to the way these two act around each other, you might not find it as hilarious as I did, but I honestly think anyone will be able to find something to love here.

Thank you so much to the publisher for providing me with this ARC in exchange for an honest review!

Sarah Graley's stuff is so sweet, silly, and will have you saying "this reminds me of me/us!" more often than not. A fun read for teens and older. The art style is inviting and colorful.

Thanks to NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review.
Our Super Adventure is an auto-bio comedy about a geeky couple and their cats. Sarah's cute art style compliments her toilet humour—it's a fun and funny read. I particularly enjoyed seeing the original and redrawn strips from when the comic first came online.

Our Super Adventure is kind of cute though there isn't much to the plot. It was very random. I recommend reading this graphic novel if you're in a reading slump and need a not-so-serious book.

Thank you for the opportunity to read Our Super Adventure.

I have always loved Sarah Graley's are style. It's super cute and comfy looking. Whenever I look at her art I feel like I am drinking a cup of hot chocolate. But this collection itself is comfortable. The relationship between Sarah and Stef is adorable and works wonderfully with the art. this is a perfect read to disconnect from the stresses of life and just relax to.

This book of comics illustrates the writer's daily life with her partner and the occasional friend plus a house full of cats. While there is no particular plot, we do get to see a lot of different slices of life. Some are sentimental, a couple are funny. These short artistic vignettes invite the reader into what is usually private life. That said, I found the content a bit too saccharine for my tastes. There didn't seem to be a single panel that offered much depth. Would have loved to see the characters become more,.

I follow Sarah Graley on Instagram and Webtoon and her comics have always been super cute and silly. This graphic novel is a great compilation of them and was a quick read. I also love that there is a page featuring her and Steph's cats. They're so cute!
