ARC given by NetGalley for Honest Review
How to Be Ace was an interesting read for me. As someone who is not ace, I was hoping to learn some new things that maybe I've been in the dark on. This is much more a memoir than a non-fiction guide to the ace spectrum. It was personal and raw and definitely draws the reader in, but the information will be mostly beneficial to people just starting their journey in learning about the queer spectrum. 

That being said this is a great book to recommend for older teens and adults who are questioning or learning about asexuality for the first time. 

The art style is charming and the dialogue and storytelling are engaging, though not all of it smoothly transitions throughout the book.

This graphic novel is highly relatable. The relationship between the narrator and Sophie is my idea of a perfect relationship. I recommend this for anyone who is - or thinks they might be - asexual, and those who wish to understand asexuality better.
