Description
Valérie Minelli’s tremendously popular Mrs. Frollein comics have been stirring emotion in people all over the world with heartfelt and earnest strips making fun of the mundane. These perfectly poignant webcomics find inspiration in the everyday, encompassing rainy coffee mornings, playful relationship adventures, and quiet introspective moments. The small, unexpected minutes that quilt life together. In addition to many of the most recent fan-favorite Mrs. Frollein strips, Small Hours also includes twenty-five all-new, never before released comics as well as a foreword from fellow web-comic luminaries, Jonathan Kunz and Elizabeth Pich of War and Peas.

I used to follow Valerie Minelli on Instagram for her amazing illustrations. So I am glad I will find them in a book soon because most of them happen to me too. It is perfect to see them when you don't have a good mood because they make you smile. And this book makes the perfect gift.
Thank you NetGalley for this eArc in exchange for a review.

I just reviewed Small Hours by Valerie Minelli. #SmallHours #NetGalley
Can't stop reading until the end!!! This book is so entertaining and I'm so lost in the read that I forgot about time. Enough said :D

This is one of my new favorite books. The drawings were adorable and well done; they fit the story/message perfectly. Almost all of the comics were things that I, personally, could relate to without feeling super depressed about what my life is like. I would highly recommend this book.

I LOVED THIS SO MUCHHHH.
I'm a fan of comics, especially romance ones, but this book was so precious and relatable I couldn't put it down. I wish I had the physical copy so I could read it when I'm feeling down and get little bursts of warm happiness. ♥️
The art is fresh and different and all the panels are unique and refreshing. I'd recommend it for anyone, it's definitely a happy little book that you should own.

~This ARC has been gently provided in exchange for an honest review~
Funny, lovely and totally relatable. It’s great the way in which Valérie Minelli illustrates different moments in life, from the most common to the deepest. One can’t avoid being identified with several of these strips.
Highly recommend it.

I had never heard of this comic before, but the description made me think they would be heartwarming comics often dealing with a loving relationship and I was right. The comics had a lighthearted vibe that perfectly showcased their loving subject matter. If you're looking for something that will make you smile and be totally relateable this is a great example. I thoroughly enjoyed reading through these comics and they put a smile on my face.
