What's your favorite rep to see in books?

Here are a few of my favorite books that feature asexual and/or aromantic leads. For the longest time I never saw characters that were like me in books. I feel like a lot of y'all can probably relate to that in some way. With it being "the month of love" I wanted to showcase characters that don't fit the traditional (read: heteronormative) mold of romance/love.

I included six characters that made me feel seen in one way or another.

1. Charlie Winshaw (The Charm Offensive by Alison Cochrun)

2. Clementine Hughes (How to Sell Your Blood and Fall in Love by D.N. Bryn)

3. Tori Spring (Solitaire by Alice Oseman)

4. Wren Roland (Never Been Kissed by Timothy Janovsky)

5. Syd (The Heartbreak Bakery by A.R. Capetta)

6. Georgia Warr (Loveless by Alice Oseman)

You don't have to fit what society says you should when it comes to relationships and romance. You don't want a partner? Great! You want three partners? Also great! No interest in anything but friendship? Wonderful! There's no right or wrong answer here and I hope you find representation in the books you read. Even if it takes a little searching to do so. You deserve it. 🖤

Happy International Asexuality Day! 🖤🩶🤍💜

Much like last year, here's a recommendation list of aspec books I've read and a few on my tbr. I've also added some aspec authors, too. It's obviously not an exhaustive list, but it'll get you started.

I'm spending this rainy day celebrating (i.e. reading) instead of educating. I've got some posts already on my page with my experience being ace. I'm tired of constantly educating and defending my sexuality to people. Google is a good starting point. Search out ace bookstagrammers and content creators. We aren't a monolith and all of our experiences are different.

I hope you enjoy the recs! Have you read any of these or have any favorites I should put on my radar?
