If you don’t know what that means, please google it I don’t want to explain it here; better yet read the book, Loveless.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text\">I finished reading the book Loveless, and then crying for like ten minutes after, and what can I say but wow. I love this book; this book spoke to me at my core. The experience of Aro-Aceness portrayed in this book mirrors my experience, my coming to turns, and many of the feelings and a lot of the fears I have had remarkably well. It’s quite spooky. I swear some of the lines written in this book where stolen right from my brain. I really do wish this existed when I was a kid it really would have helped me alot<sup id=\"fnref:1\" role=\"doc-noteref\"><a href=\"#fn:1\" class=\"footnote\" rel=\"footnote\">1</a></sup>. This book discusses so many experiences of aceness in such a humanizing way. The story is so soft and wholesome the characters are quirky and funny, but in a real-life way, no one is a caricature of some stereotype. The way this book discusses friendship is incredible and honestly has even helped me work through some of my own ace-related existential fears. I loved this book. If you’re one of my friends reading this, or I guess some random person, and you want to understand me better read this book. If you wish to understand aro-aceness better or just better understand — one example — of the aspec experience read this book, you won’t regret it.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text\">I listened to the audiobook partly because I couldn’t actually find a hard copy online at the time of writing this. Also, because for fiction, I often enjoy audiobooks more, and it was well done if you’re an audiobook person recommended it.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text\">If you want this book you should be able to find it <a href=\"https://www.harpercollins.ca/9780008244125/loveless\">here</a><sup id=\"fnref:2\" role=\"doc-noteref\"><a href=\"#fn:2\" class=\"footnote\" rel=\"footnote\">2</a></sup>. Anyways I’m gonna cry for another twenty minutes about this book now</p>\n\n<p class=\"text\">PS.<br />\nTo the author Alice Oseman. Thank you.</p>\n\n<div class=\"footnotes\" role=\"doc-endnotes\">\n  <ol>\n    <li id=\"fn:1\" role=\"doc-endnote\">\n      <p>That is why they say representation matters. <a href=\"#fnref:1\" class=\"reversefootnote\" role=\"doc-backlink\">&#8617;</a></p>\n    </li>\n    <li id=\"fn:2\" role=\"doc-endnote\">\n      <p>Again at the time of writing this is couldn’t find a hard copy so it may not be there. Aswell that link is Canadian based as I am Canadian so if you’re not just google the book and hopefully you can find it. <a href=\"#fnref:2\" class=\"reversefootnote\" role=\"doc-backlink\">&#8617;</a></p>\n    </li>\n  </ol>\n</div>\n",
