Bruce Bennett of the Wall Street Journal calls Scenes a "wryly confessional cartoon depiction of the leg work, negotiations, logistical decisions and procedural compromises" encountered en route to the altar.
Mark Frauenfelder of BoingBoing is "glad they are sharing these entertaining and endearing personal stories with a wider audience."
Elsewhere, David L. Ulin has a beautiful write-up about Scenes from an Impending Marriage on the LA Times Jacket Copy blog. "The details resonate, highlighting the ability of such a story to extend beyond itself. That's what Tomine does so beautifully, here as in his other work, using his experience to create a portal into our own."
He goes on to say that "part of the fun of the book [is in] finding the points of reference, as it were. But more essential, Tomine has created a heartfelt, recognizable portrait of the anxiety that surrounds the public declaration of love."
And so it begins, folks!
