"Witty and light, this is sure to be a hit with anyone wanting a queer Jo March-ish historical heroine." --BuzzFeed "Croucher's novel is witty, well-written, and heartfelt and will intrigue those looking for writerly heroines and friends-to-lovers romance between women." --Library Journal "Gleeful and unruly, Infamous brings Gen Z zeitgeist to some seriously hilarious Regency angst. Croucher is a rare talent, with a genius for hijinks, hot messes, irrepressible characters, and turns of phrase that will stick in your mind until the end of time. Eddie's coming-of-age arc shines with insights into the wild, worthwhile work it takes to find yourself, and find love." --Joanna Lowell, author of The Duke Undone "This historical-ish bildungsroman with a big side of friends to lovers sapphic romance is set in the Regency period but written with a decidedly 21st century queer and feminist sensibility." --Autostraddle Praise for Reputation: There's nothing prim or proper about Croucher's dazzling debut, which is so boldly, audaciously modern in its portrayal of 19th-century mean-girl culture that I kept waiting for someone to inform the heroine that on Wednesdays, they wear pink." --BookPage, starred review "Think of Bridgerton crossed with Sex Education and you have Reputation...reminding us that the process of coming of age really hasn't changed for centuries." --Good Housekeeping (UK) "Reputation is the fresh, fiercely feminist, and utterly irreverent sendup of Jane Austen that I didn't know I needed." --Martha Waters, author of To Have and to Hoax
