In this episode, we talk about Claire Kann’s young adult romance novel, Let’s Talk About Love: "Alice had her whole summer planned. Non-stop 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.”
We loved that this book got us thinking about relationships, sex, and romantic love from a new perspective. This episode covers a vast array of topics, from exactly what asexuality is and how it fits into the spectrum of sexual identity, why labels can matter to us so much, and a ton more. In a lot of ways, Alice was one of the most relatable heroines we've read, and we can't wait for you to meet her. As always, we discuss the entire story, so read the book beforehand if you don't want to be spoiled.
The next book we'll be discussing is All or Nothing by Rose Lerner.
