Hmm, this book was... interesting. The premise intrigued me and I love different romances, but after finishing it I'm not sure I feel invested in the continuation. It's definitely an interesting interpretation of when technology develops a conscious and the ways humans will still be bigots and hateful. I did like the art style; the colors and the depiction of the human body were all lovely, but the story itself felt very eh for me.

The first installment of Love Love Love had me hooked! The art is so expressive and really helps you connect to these characters. Characters, especially the main pair Elle and Karel who are really brought to life. The futuristic world is vibrant and colorful and designed so well. The story of love and oppression and segregation tackles it’s themes with tact and care. I really enjoyed my time reading Vol. 1 and look forward to the continuation of the story.

This is a gorgeous graphic novel with absolutely beautiful illustrations, The story is sweet and the world-building impressive within so few pages. This was a great introduction to a series but it was so short that the main conflict seemed rushed. I would, however, read more in the series.

This was a much richer, more developed opening than I was anticipating, and for the most part it was very fun and touching. The art was very pretty, and I loved the world that the creators had built here--it seemed mostly like a solid metaphor for the treatment of a variety of marginalized groups in current times. I will say that the political dynamics toward the end seemed to leave a lot to be desired though--in this day and age, it seems problematic to have a rebellion group portrayed as 'the bad guy' along with the authoritarian government. Hopefully this gets developed with more nuance in the second volume, though I don't have the highest hopes there...so the end was more than a bit disappointing to me, hence the rating.

I enjoyed this vibrant pictorial read — an entertaining example of science fiction rendered in comics form.

Thanks Netgalley and publisher for giving me the volume 1 of this graphic novel.

I’m not too keen on the font like it is small enough and frustrating to zoom in every single panel. The art was nice enough tho ..

A unique and quirky story about a robot falling in love with a human, during a time of great social unrest. Little bit of Wall-E, little bit of Her, little bit V for Vendetta.

This was a beautifully drawn graphic novel, the art work was really arresting, though occasionally a bit busy.

The story is unique, and layered with the whole humans vs. robots subplot informing the romance at the surface.

It was an easy and very interesting read that I would recommend to any lover of sci-fi and graphic novels.

Oh, this was lovely! It's one for fans of Detroit: Become Human. This is a near-future world where robots are a sentient underclass, who face discrimination. It's romantic, slightly angsty - and really sweet. I'm definitely going to check out Vol 2!

2.75/3 stars

I was not expecting this to be this dark. I was expecting a love story and boy I didn't get that all.
That ending was a bit shocking, still it wasn't a bad graphic novel just don't come expecting love love love.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for the chance to read this book in exchange for an honest review
