Finding connection beyond romance

Georgia enters college puzzled by the gap between her friends’ experiences of romance and sex and her own. As she learns about the asexual and aromantic spectrum, the story examines how familiar ideas about dating and love can shape expectations—and how a clearer understanding of identity can affect friendships. Georgia’s efforts to make sense of herself unfold alongside the support and complications of her social circle. The book places romantic and sexual relationships within a broader picture of connection, including the bonds people build with friends.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in stories about asexual and aromantic identities.
  • Readers seeking YA fiction that explores friendship and definitions of love beyond romance.

Book overview

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.
