Let's Talk About Love

De: Claire Kann

Narrado por: Adenrele Ojo

Striking a perfect balance between heartfelt emotions and spot-on humor, this debut features a pop-culture enthusiast protagonist with an unforgettable voice sure to resonate with listeners.

Alice had her whole summer planned. Nonstop all-you-can-eat buffets while marathoning her favorite TV shows (best friends totally included) with the smallest dash of adulting - working at the library to pay her share of the rent. The only thing missing from her perfect plan? Her girlfriend (who ended things when Alice confessed she's asexual).

Alice is done with dating - no thank you, do not pass go, stick a fork in her, done. But then Alice meets Takumi and she can't stop thinking about him or the rom com-grade romance feels she did not ask for (uncertainty, butterflies, and swoons, oh my!).

When her blissful summer takes an unexpected turn and Takumi becomes her knight with a shiny library-employee badge (close enough), Alice has to decide if she's willing to risk their friendship for a love that might not be reciprocated - or understood.

The insight was worth it.

It's a wonderful story. I tdelivered insight into what some people might be struggling with. I truly enjoyed it.

Not What I Expected However...

Been looking for a story book about asexuality and I have to admit, Takumi's character at the end was not what I expected it to be to as far as accepting an asexual relationship, but it was definitely more realistic and I appreciate that. I absolutely recommend this book not only for people who want to understand asexuality, but for asexuals who want to understand others not like them.

Yes Queer Black Woman Représentation!

Come throuuuuugghhhh, kween! This is so GREAT. I could listen to it all over again. So relatable and apt. Great story. All the squee

A-plus Representation and so fun!

As a Black asexual woman who loves love, this was such a wonderful story to listen to! I highly recommend. I feel seen, I enjoyed the journey, and I loved how true to life it all felt. This is the exact representation I didn’t even know I needed and it was written so beautifully. My heart was so happy listening to it!

I relate so hard it hurts

I identified and related to Alice’s thoughts so much that it was almost shocking when she said something I didn’t expect. I was brought back to my tumbler days with the word “squish”. This book had me reliving my past and remembering parts about figuring out asexuality I completely forgot. I think this book is a very easy, fun, important read.
