I shall Never Fall In Love: Hari Conner x Lex Croucher

Winter nights are drawing close, tuck in for a perfect night of queer joy with Hari Conner and Lex Croucher, beamed right to you!

We're thrilled to be hosting a virtual launch of Conner's stunningly romantic graphic novel I shall Never Fall In Love. Inspired by the work of Jane Austen and real queer, trans history, it is perfect for fans of Heartstopper, Bloom and Lex Croucher; But don't just take our word for it, Alice Oseman had this to say: 'Hari Conner’s characters are so lovable and the artwork, as always in Conner’s work, totally blew me away with its exquisite details, atmosphere, and emotion. I am obsessed with this book.' 

Two twists on a virtual launch: email us your questions for Hari by end of day October 7th and we'll include them in the event, and, if you pre-order the book for the event you'll get a signed bookplate*!

But now, more about the book:

George has major problems: They’ve just inherited the failing family estate, and the feelings for their best friend, Eleanor, have become more complicated than ever. Not to mention, if anyone found out they were secretly dressing in men’s clothes, George is sure it would be ruination for the family name.

Eleanor has always wanted to do everything “right," including falling in love—but she’s never met a boy she was interested in. She’d much rather spend time with her best friend, George, and beloved cousin Charlotte.

However, when a new suitor comes to town, she finds her closest friendships threatened, forcing her to rethink what “right" means and confront feelings she never knew she had.

Please note this event will be pre-recorded, but you can send questions in any time before close of day 7th of October, just email books @lighthousebookshop.com with 'Question for Hari' in the subject line :)
