This is a really informative and well done book for younger kids questioning if they are on the asexual/aromantic spectrum(s). I liked the characters - especially the growing relationship with Rick and Grandpa Ray!! It was so nice to see how they grew close and opened up to each other, felt they could be themselves. 
I feel so conflicted about the ending - I both loved it and felt like it was missing something? I can't quite figure out what, but I just felt like it needed a little more. That's just me though 😅
