MEDIA REVIEWS
'Gwen and Art was exactly what I need right now - a delightful,heart-warming,hilarious historical romp,overflowing with queer panic and terrible jokes. I loved it.'- Alice Oseman
'Fun and genuinely funny,with lovely friendships and first-rate dialogue. Gwen and Art may not be in love,but I fell for them both.'- Rainbow Rowell
'An utter delight. Croucher conjures a fresh new Camelot,full of jousts,hijinks and exuberantly queer characters that will make you swoon. This is the gay Camelot I always wanted!'- C S Pacat
'This book does a flirty tango with the Arthurian legends while also sticking a KICK ME sign on their back: it contains enough sword fights and banter to keep the pages flying,but it's also a sharp and compassionate look at the terrifying wonder of being a queer young person coming to terms with yourself. Gwen and Art are Not in Loveis a work of hilarious and heart-mending genius. I read it in a joyous rush and I can't wait to buy it for literally everyone I know.'- Freya Marske
