“One of the bravest, freshest voices” – Laura Dockrill, Observer
“Written with verve, wit and a mischievous love of language…it’s one to just enjoy” – Francesca Brown, Stylist, on CLEAN
“The book every LGBT person would have killed for as a teenager, told in the voice of a wise best friend.” – Patrick Ness, on THIS BOOK IS GAY

“Beautiful, moving and witty” – Cecilia Ahern, on MARGOT & ME
It’s a very special thing to be asked to represent literature from the UK. All authors dream of reaching a global audience, and in times when it’s easy to feel very divided, it’s encouraging that art is being shared around the world.
