'A totally gorgeous read' BETH O'LEARY, author of THE FLATSHARE

Reviews

One of my favourite books of 2023. It captures the pleasure/pain of a huge, heartfelt crush, and it also beautifully evokes the warmth of a loving community. I would love to stop by 'the commune' for a cup of tea with them all. A totally gorgeous read * Beth O'Leary, author of THE NO-SHOW *
I completely and utterly adored Wild Things. It's perfectly observed, brilliantly funny, full of queer joy and such a timely exploration of what adult life could and should look like now * Emma Hughes, author of NO SUCH THING AS PERFECT *
Wild Things feels fresh and exciting - a touching and realistic read with wonderful characters. I love Laura's writing * KATIE FFORDE, author of ONE ENCHANTED EVENING *
A gorgeous queer rom-com that will have you laughing out loud * Glamour *
Three novels in and Kay has established herself as one of the bright lights of queer romcom * Marie Claire *
A sparkling, witty read filled with the most down-to-earth, loveable characters. The comedic timing was pitch-perfect too -- Lizzie Damilola Blackburn
Laura Kay has taken it to the next level - real Emily Henry vibes but gay. Joyous, funny, sexy and romantic - a triumph! * Kate Sawyer, award-winning author of THE STRANDING *
Funny and heartwarming and SO brilliantly evocative of the agony/ecstasy of having an enormous crush. . . Makes you want to move to a house in the country with your best friends * KATE DAVIES, author of IN AT THE DEEP END *
Wild Things filled my heart all the way up. A hilarious story of queer friendship, queer longing, and queer triumph * TJ Alexander, author of CHEF'S KISS *
Fresh, fun, thoughtful and hopeful, a joyfully messy story of contemporary queer life * Bethany Rutter, author of WELCOME TO YOUR LIFE *
Heady, giddy, and outrageously flirty, Wild Things is the perfect escapist queer romcom for anyone longing to move to the country with their best friends * Lily Lindon, author of DOUBLE BOOKED *
A spirited whirl through the agony and the ecstasy of a queer crush, and the vital friendships that keep us sane * Justin Myers, author of THE FAKE-UP *
Brimming with both hilarity and heartfelt relationships, Wild Things is a delightful romance, complete with DIY home repair, a beautiful queer found family, and backyard hens. I adored El's journey to realizing that only by taking risks can she really get what she wants, in both life... and love * Ashley Herring Blake, USA TODAY bestselling author of ASTRID PARKER DOESN'T FAIL *
Wild Things really has everything I love in contemporary fiction. A beautiful story of yearning, bravery, different kinds of family . . . my heart was with El the whole time * Lizzie Huxley-Jones, author of MAKE YOU MINE THIS CHRISTMAS *
Deeply felt and wonderfully whimsical, Laura Kay's ode to getting wild is full of will-they-won't-they spark and the resonance of life-changing questions. El and Ray's is the perfect story of leaving everything you know and finding your meant-to-be * Emily Wibberley & Austin Siegemund-Broka, authors of DO I KNOW YOU *
Joyful, uplifting, heartfelt and properly laugh-out loud funny. A big-hearted story about the messiness of queer friendships and love. Laura Kay always writes the characters I want to be friends with! * Harry Nicholas, author of A TRANS MAN WALKS INTO A GAY BAR *
Laura Kay will have you crying with both tears of laughter and happiness * VIP Magazine *
