i won't lie, this book was a bit of a disappointment for me. i picked it up because i was interested in reading a book with asexual rep and also intrigued by the fact that the main character, alice, works at a library (like myself!). as for the representation, overall, i do think that it was well done and definitely one of its greatest strengths! although, i just couldn't ever get really invested in the plot or the charcters and reading a book with a book with eh charcters as a character>plot reader can definitely make a book drag on.
the language/author's style of writing also wasn't my favorite. it just didn't really reflect the fact that most of the characters were college-aged and was instead immature. however, partly because of this, i found it to be a fairly "easy" read. also, there were some well-written cute, romantic moments that i enjoyed. overall, i found this book to be pretty meh and not super memorable.
