Okay I take it back the romance is dead for me 💀 the love interest (?) Krystal literally express her potential of maybe being aromatic (saying love aka romantic love isn’t for her), and the ace-spec main character just SHUTS HER OFF AND SAY “it’s not possible (romantic) love isn’t for you!!!” ARE YOU SERIOUS??? In an ace lesbian book we’re apparently saying being aromantic is impossible? 😭

All my narrative criticism can be swiped aside because this is the best book on ace spectrum and experience discussion other than IS LOVE THE ANSWER? the manga that I have read and I read that like a few years ago

I think this book is simultaneously the best in terms of examining and exploring ace lesbian identity which I rarely see as a ace lesbian (especially reflecting on how different ace-spec identities have a different degree of relationship and spectrum regarding feeling surrounding sex). But also has the least interesting love interest, like…0 personality 0 chemistry. 😭

Omg seeing the words where a protagonist openly refers to herself as a asexual lesbian healed something in me jshejwiiwk Idk why I needed this but it’s the first time I saw those actual words ever in a sapphic romance where someone explicitly identifies as an asexual lesbian aaaaa
