Dogs on Dates by Luke Healy
Publishes 18 June
The feel-good graphic novel of the summer – a shaggy-dog love story to melt the coldest of hearts.
If you can’t believe in a cute, funny boy who was nice to you once . . . what can you believe in?
Meet Bernie and Brad, two single dogs getting by in Dog City. Bernie has just dropped out of university and Brad, working for an environmental charity, is trying not to have a meltdown about the melting ice caps. When the pair crash into one another’s lives, they em(bark) on a series of dates – new food spots, terrible films, nights in and mishaps a plenty – as they realise that maybe it’s not just about meeting the right match, but whether you can then make it work.
Funny, anxious, and heartwarming, this is the story of two dogs trying to find hope in love, and in each other.
