Critics Review

Informative and heartfelt. Rebecca’s journey gives voice to asexual experience, combined with feelings surrounding growing up which the majority can relate to. How to Be Ace strikes a fine balance between memoir and information. * Broken Frontier *I wish this book existed in my late teens. It would have made the next decade of my life so much easier to navigate. It’s not preachy at all - just personal, relatable and supportive. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone who thinks they might be on the asexual spectrum. * Happily Ever Homebody *
