Description
A brilliantly witty and wise illustrated guide to relationships for teens - by the hugely popular webcomic artist and creator of Oh No!
Isn't it wonderful when love strikes? When you encounter someone beautiful and interesting and suddenly: feelings. But what do you do when that first crush squashes you flat, when sparks fly but fizzle out, when you and your other half just don't click together?
Enter How to Love! Your funny, wise and very different guide to relationships of all shapes and sizes, covering topics from singlehood to jealousy to happily ever after - all delivered in Alex Norris's clever, accessible and bright graphic style.
Full colour throughout and in an Agony Aunt format, with each chapter posed as a question - answered in comic book form. Inclusive of all genders and sexualities, and created by a queer non-binary artist.

Reviews
"Joyous, funny and heartwarming. [...] This delightful non-fiction graphic novel is a guide to relationships that is perfect for teenagers who are just embarking on their love lives." -- Charlotte Eyre * The Bookseller *
Covering everything from loneliness, jealously, and being dumped to loving more than one person and how ignoring social conventions can make a relationship stronger, this non-fiction graphic novel is an entertaining and encompassing look at the questions young people might have about romantic relationships [...] How to Love feels perfectly aligned with a generation of young people for whom the old-fashioned rules about love and romance do not apply. -- Charlotte Eyre * The Bookseller *
An inclusive guide to love in all its many forms. * The Bookseller *
I loved it and can't wait to read the full thing, as I especially liked how inclusive the book was of different sexualities and gender identities. I would definitely recommend checking this book out! * NetGalley Reviewer *
