Gemma Weekes is a name to watch. Written in a zingy, street-smart prose, Love Me is a bitter-sweet coming-of-age fable that crackles with reflections on race, migration and music. ... Belongs to an exciting, hip-hop savvy, cross-cultural genre of British fiction

Singer-poet Weekes's fresh, tough take on modern love hits you where you feel it most
Melissa Katsoulis, Sunday Telegraph
Singer and poet Gemma Weekes's first foray into fiction is a delight. With the time-worn coming-of-age love story turned into a fresh, alluring read... Striking characters, spot-on scene setting and fast, flirty language make for a shimmering debut.
Catherine Taylor, Guardian
Heartfelt story about love in a hectic city
Pride Magazine
Do not let the fact that a bright, young, female musician/poet is 'transitioning' into writing prose fool you into thinking this will be anything short of beautiful; anything other than potent, for this is anything but chick lit...Weekes magics up every sight, sound, smell, touch and even taste in her own unique way
