What I Read: July (2023)
It’s rare that I am not reading anything. I am usually so wrapped up in a book, that I have to force myself to put it down to do literally anything else. I have always been like this, even as a child, teachers often had to tell me to put a book away and pay attention to class. I still, however, sometimes fall into reading slumps, where I pick up a book, and no matter how well it is written or how interesting the plot is, I can’t seem to fully immerse myself in the story and am almost constantly distracted.

Things I love about-’Is Love The Answer’ by Uta Isaki
This is my first ‘book club’ challenge. I know it might be odd for some viewers. It’s a graphic or an illustrated novel, like a comic book, but not a literary novel. It's one of the best coming-of-age stories that I highly recommend for Aromantic/Asexual Pride. I know it's not a hundred percent transformation. But, it's one of the best books to know that I'm not alone.
