Illustrated by celebrated cartoonist Dame Darcy, Vegan Love offers guidance
for women on how to spread the vegan love and bring compassion for all
beings into one’s romantic life. Author Maya Gottfried shares her own

REVIEWS
"Vegan Love is one of the most informative and knowledgeable books written
on the subject of not only being vegan, but how to live vegan. It is a true
celebration of all life―respectful on every level. Full of fun and joy."
~ James Van Praagh, #1 New York Times bestselling author and spiritual
teacher
"The tool you need to navigate the world of vegan relationships . . . Vegan
Love is a practical guide for single vegan women who are looking for love,
but it’s also a means of support for those already in committed
relationships. However, the deeper purpose of the book is key: It will help
you develop the skills to give love, compassion, and respect on every level,
and this will spill over into your romantic life."
~ PETA
"Including her own experiences as well as that of 30 other vegan women and
their partners, the book contains advice ranging from where to meet people
(vegan charity events, vegetable festivals and searching for vegans on
dating apps are a good idea) [to] date and where to shop for vegan-free
clothing and make-up."
~ Tthe Independent
". . . we ate up the book's whimsical illustrations, first-date stories,

others of all dietary persuasions."
