I wish I had read Hazel’s Theory of Evolution when I was younger. Even thought the words aromantic and asexual weren’t used on page (they were explained at the end of the book), I could’ve related to Hazel so much. I had a friend in my life whose family had always been vocal about how their miscarriage affected their life, and I really felt for them. I think this book also would have helped me understand it more deeply!
