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.

The Tune of Two Hearts Laced
Amelia strolled through the clamoring roads of the city, her heart an orchestra of both fervor and fear. She had as of late moved to this lively city to seek after her fantasies about turning into an eminent musician. Much to her dismay that her process would lead her to a romantic tale as charming as the tunes she played.

The Giving Tree
I'm going to talk about "The Giving Tree" for a minute. Because it's February and because I want to. A lot has been said on this topic before, but I daresay... maybe most of the literature surrounding the book is wrong. Obviously, you can read whatever you want into whatever you want. If you want to read it as an Environmentalist message, a message about parenting, a message about selfishness and narcissism, go nuts. But hold that thought and hear me out. Shel Silverstein himself once said, "It's a story about a boy and a tree. It has a pretty sad ending." And without appealing to the author too much, maybe that sentence is more profound than it appears at first glance.

The House of the Scorpion
I was stumped trying to figure out what to read next. Nothing seemed to jump out at me from the pile of unopened books on my shelf at home, so I turned to the only place I could think of for suggestions–my classroom. My students have quite the eclectic taste when it comes to books, so I knew that I would get suggestions that I wouldn’t have stumbled across myself. One suggestion, from one of my more voracious readers, led me to pick up Nancy Farmer’s, “The House of the Scorpion.”

Little Women and their non-binary fan
I started reading at an early age, I was three when I started to put words and pictures together in my board books. My mother read to me every night. We had our little routine and for a young child who would eventually be diagnosed autistic, it was what I needed. I got into the bath at 7, and into bed at 730 for a story until it ended and it was time to get some sleep. Simple picture books turned to storybooks complete with voices and then those turned into chapters each night from a book. Little Women was one of those chapter books I remember fondly, a book that sticks with me just like my Mom's banana pancakes on Sunday mornings.
