Next Generation Indie Book Awards Winner in LGBT . “An important resource for readers of any age who are struggling to understand their sexual orientation, or those who would like to better understand asexuality.” —Library Journal, starred review
Julie Sondra Decker’s book functions as a starting point for people interested in asexuality. It covers the basics of what asexuality is and isn’t, explores the most common issues asexual people may be dealing with, presents some pointers for newly asexual-identified people and the people who love them, and includes some resources to find out more. It’s for the layperson, written in everyday language.

She writes for people who are on the asexual spectrum, people who think they might be asexual, friends and family and partners of people who have come out as asexual, curious parties, and those looking for information on the subject for their school papers, sexuality studies, and alternative sexuality resources. And it’s for people who think asexuality doesn’t exist. Chapters include:
Asexuality as a Sexual Orientation Romantic Orientation Libido and Masturbation Intimate and Sexual Activity Asexual Relationships Asexual Community Should Asexual People Get Therapy and Be Fixed Am I Asexual? Should I Come Out? And much more
If you think you may be asexual, or if you have a friend or partner who may be a sexual, this personal book will help you better understand what it means to be asexual in a world dominated by sexuality.

3.7 Stars. It's great that there is a book such as this. It isn't merely interesting for those who wonder themselves whether they might belong somewhere under the "ace umbrella". It also has value, I believe, for those who just want to learn about the subject of asexuality for the first time. But it really very much is an introduction and becomes repetitive in some parts when you actually treat yourself to the whole thing, not just the passages that might be more addressed to you as someone researching for the first time (for whatever purpose). Also: I listened to the audible audiobook, and the narrator does have one of those voices I like to zone out to... I started this book "too late", but it is a solid introduction to the subject.
