As advertised: A loose, cartoony departure from Tomine’s previous work, Scenes from an Impending Marriage is a sweet-natured, laugh out-loud skewering of the modern marriage process..." As always his art is excellent.

Cutest little book about planning a wedding ever. I very much saw elements of the couple in planning my own wedding: who to invite, what traditions to add or ignore, what songs to play. This book displays Tomine's experiences nicely.
