Loveless by Alice Oseman

Not everyone can fall in love. Georgia thinks she’s just being picky because she is into no one. Objectively, she can see when people are attractive, and she would love to have a partner, it’s just nobody does it for her. It’s not until she joins the Pride Society at university that she discovers she’s aromantic and asexual: two things she didn’t even know were things before. Once she realises, it’s a hard path to self-acceptance. 

I loved this message: if something feels like a wrong fit, maybe that’s because it is. We don’t all fit into the moulds society expects us to, and that’s okay. Another message I loved: friendships can be every bit as important as, if not more than, romantic love. 

“Give your friendships the magic you would give a romance. Because they're just as important. Actually, for us, they're way more important.”

This is a book for #self-acceptance, #lgbt #sexualidentity being #aromantic and #asexual.
