A coming-of-age graphic memoir about one girl’s struggle to figure out and then claim her asexual identity. The debut of cartoonist cooklin.
"There are still relatively few books exploring asexuality, and this powerful account will comfort those who grew up feeling broken." -Booklist, starred review
