How to Be Ace: A Memoir of Growing Up Asexual by Rebecca Burgess

emotional hopeful reflective medium-paced

4.25

I liked the art style of this one and the memoir narrative. It was also intensely relatable for me personally. However, there was something missing and I can’t quite put my finger on it. It might be that the premise is framed as coming to terms with your asexuality, when in reality it focusses more on discovering your asexuality.
