Beautiful.Īnyway, I’m off to raise the flag. At its core it’s a heartwarming story of overcoming challenges using acceptance and love. I think there’s enough in this for ace and allo folk, those with and without OCD. Rebecca Burgess does a great job of informing and educating without preaching or casting hatred on ignorance. I wish books like this existed when I was a teenager – it would have helped make things much less confusing for sure. It’s a sweet and heartfelt memoir, with fantastic ace and OCD rep that spoke to me on a deep level. A less good point for How To Be Ace is that it doesn’t really give you what it promises. Rebecca Burgess recently saw her graphic novel How To Be Ace published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers, and the picture book she drew, Wiggles, Stomps and Squeezes, published this past week. I’m aro-ace, and I was diagnosed with OCD, so I jumped at this as soon as I saw it. That was definitely a bonus point for this graphic novel. From school to work to relationships, this book offers an unparalleled insight into asexuality. Genre Non-Fiction, Memoir, LGBT+, Graphic Novelīrave, witty and empowering, this graphic memoir follows Rebecca as she navigates her asexual identity and mental health in a world obsessed with sex. Title How to Be Ace: A Memoir of Growing Up Asexual
