I couldn't put it down (or whatever the audio book version of that phrase is) until I finished it. There is no question what so ever that I'll read this again!

Great - though a bit depressing

Honestly, through most of the book I felt like someone had written down my own story. Not that I went to college in Britain, but the feeling and the reasoning was definitely familiar.

Which is why I was a bit disappointed that the book kept referring to the identity as something unwanted and sad - "this is who I am and there's nothing we can do about that".

I grew up loving romance as well (still do) and yes, that made the decision to embrace the term aromantic a bit harder, but very soon after that came the great relief that I didn't have to go on dates anymore, that I was allowed to grow old surrounded by friends and a couple of cats, instead of having to find someone specific to marry.

I know that this might be a biographical book, and that there are aros out there struggling with wanting romance - but this lack of happiness with the identity makes it seem like aces and aros should be pitied - which is exactly one of the stereotypes we're fighting against.

In conclusion: I loved reading a story that so accurately describes what it's like to be aroace and not know it. But I really didn't appreciate the book making me feel bad about my identity. Society already tries to do that.

This is only worth buying to get 5 books for the price of 1. Nothing more.

The stories were as unoriginal as they come, with 4 out of 6 working in the same field, if not for the same company, meaning the stories were practically identical.

Also, the story was basically a B-version of The Phoenix Club by CJ Bishop, now with mpreg...

Disappointing to say the least...

A heartwarming book - the reading? Not so much.

I wish the whole thing had been read by Anthony Ray Perez. Both because he has a nice voice, because Joel Froomkin's voice does a lot of unnecessary over-the-top exaggerations, and because I like it better when you feel like you know the voices of the characters. This wasn't really possible here, since both actors effectively read for both characters.
