I've seen a bunch of Debbie Tung's comics before – her other work is hilarious and usually, if you're a bookworm and you're on Facebook, you'll be tagged on a whole bunch of book-related posts – so I definitely have seen some of Book Love before out in the wild (the wild meaning Facebook, of course).

So I was very happy to receive the arc through Netgalley! And sometimes, yes, it does have its reservations – a lot of these comics about funny bookworm problems do use book reader stereotypes. Even though those stereotypes are fun to read about – for the first few times, because I've had so many older people assume that because I like to read, I prefer physical books. But I don't. I like e-books so I can enlarge the font, or audiobooks so I can clean my room and listen to a book. Or a lot of people assume that because I read a lot, I love the classics. Which, yeah, I actually don't. And people do ask for book recommendations but they're not interested in YA or diverse books
