Critics Review
“Strapp’s breezy debut rom-com features queer college students grappling with messy, intertwined love lives. […] the youthful ensemble’s trial-and-error approaches to matters of the heart ring true. Fans of queer romance will enjoy this.” * Publishers Weekly *
“How Could You is an entertaining graphic novel about the pleasures and perils of college romances.” * Foreword Reviews *
“Growing up, you’re always told college will be the best time of your life, but Ren Strapp prepares you for the gruesome reality… . Twenty year olds just kind of suck at relationships. All the fun of hearing secondhand gossip, How Could You is a juicy lesbian drama burger you can’t help but devour. If I had read this when I was 20, it would’ve fixed me.” – Fawnduu (My Dragon Girlfriend)
“How Could You invites us to indulge in the full-body experience that is college lesbian dating drama. From the swoony warmth of a summer fling to the ecstasy and agony of having a really big cry even though you’re fully the villain, you will devour the delicious self-inflicted queer misery of this graphic novel. Funny, heartbreaking, and cathartic, How Could You is a triumph.” – Ollie Hicks (Grand Slam Romance)
“Ren Strapp presents an intimate, vulnerable window into the messiness of college romance.” – Reimena Yee (Seance Tea Party)
