Book Synopsis
For fans of Love, Simon and I Wish You All the Best, a funny, honest, messy, completely relatable story of a girl who realizes that love can be found in many ways that don't involve sex or romance.
From the marvelous author of Heartstopper comes an exceptional YA novel about discovering that it's okay if you don't have sexual or romantic feelings for anyone... since there are plenty of other ways to find love and connection.
This is the funny, honest, messy, completely relatable story of Georgia, who doesn't understand why she can't crush and kiss and make out like her friends do. She's surrounded by the narrative that dating + sex = love. It's not until she gets to college that she discovers the A range of the LGBTQIA+ spectrum -- coming to understand herself as asexual/aromantic. Disrupting the narrative that she's been told since birth isn't easy -- there are many mistakes along the way to inviting people into a newly found articulation of an always-known part of your identity. But Georgia's determined to get her life right, with the help of (and despite the major drama of) her friends.

Not actually a queer story
Read this bc it was marketed as a queer story but it’s actually about an aromantic asexual person who doesn’t experience same-gender attraction at all… also not a fan of how the antagonist is a gay person who thinks that asexuality doesn’t necessarily make you queer

Awesome Acearo Rep!
Asexual representation we need. It’s a great read for those who do or don’t identify as ace.

I cried a lot (in a hood way).
Ahh i love this book so much! I really wish something like this existed back then, would’ve really helped a lot with my identity. The author was able to capture the aromantic asexual experience really well! I have never felt so understood.
Amazing book
