I’m so happy this book exists. It’s validating, captivating, and a great companion for anyone going through uni or the process of finding themselves. Much more emotional than I expected, I welled up multiple times. I just wish more people heard this message- all love is important!

I think when a book means so much to you it’s hard to give it an adequate review. Like Mr Knightley said, “If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more.” This book stared into my very soul and made me understand myself in a whole new way, and it gave me so much hope for my future. I laughed and cried and was rendered speechless. I felt like I WAS Georgia.

Che meraviglia. Questo libro entra direttamente nello scaffale dei miei libri preferiti. E' un libro che ho adorato dall'inizio alla fine, super scorrevole e che mi spingeva sempre a leggere un capitolo in più. Sento veramente di essere entrato a far parte di questo gruppo di amici ed è stato estremamente facile identificarmi con loro perché sento che ognuno di loro rispecchia una parte diversa della mia persona. Georgia è decisamente uno dei personaggi più relatable di cui abbia mai letto hahaha Questo libro è pieno d'amore, dalla prima all'ultima pagina. Sembra davvero che l'amore, in tutte le sue forme e in tutte le sue dimensioni, straripi da ogni singola parola di Alice. Questo per me è stato il primo approccio alla sua scrittura, ma voglio sicuramente leggere altri suoi libri.

Nice to see a book with such a diverse range of characters. Exploring their identities and sexualties is something we definitely need to see more of in this day and age and Osmen did an amazing job of describing these characters and the journeys they're all going through as they find their place in the world. As someone in their early 20s this is truly a relatable book

This is the first book by Alice Oseman that I've read . It surprised me . I didn't know what to expect going in and I'm glad I read it . This was a book club book. 

Loveless follows Georgia as she and her friends go to university . She always thought she was straight and was going to find love someday . She doesn't know why she can't crush on anyone ,only to realize in her university journey that she's asexual /aromantic . This book follows her journey with her friends , discovering that there are other types of love out there . 

I definitely recommend this book. It was insightful and heartwarming .

I've never been a huge fan of contemporary fiction but this book had me hooked from start to finish. Although all the characters had their flaws they were overall loveable and their flaws only heightened this trait. The whole story was heartwarming and bittersweet with just enough drama to keep it interesting without overwhelming the reader.
