Nix Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Thanks for sharing! The book she wrote looks interesting too, I’m putting that on my wishlist.

As in, we choose a book to read (for example the one mentioned above) and then after a week or so we discuss it? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, and some people have listed books already so it wouldn't be too hard to get started, I think. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like an aro (and other aro branches like aroace) specialised book club to get like book suggestions. Hell knows I need a lot of reading to catch up on all these years I thought I felt romantic attraction. DM me if you guys ever start one please 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmbo Posted January 6, 2023 Author Share Posted January 6, 2023 I'm reading the book now and it's pretty good so far. I like how it brings up stuff I almost only see in aro circles, like qpr, but I hope it will get more into actual advice to eventually. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
