insights about the nature of sexuality and social norms, Cody

I Am Ace is the loving introduction to the ace community we wish we
had when we were younger. Whether you're questioning your sexuality
or just curious to learn more about asexuality, Cody's personal
stories and comforting advice will guide you to a greater
understanding of yourself and the world around you.

Anything Else*
the most in-depth and most validating, affirming book for any
asexual to read
*Netgalley Reviewer*
Written like a letter from an old friend, I Am Ace takes the reader
on a journey towards confidence in discussing and proudly owning
their asexuality. Both educational and conversational,
Daigle-Orians has completed a guide on self discovery and
understanding that simplifies a complex topic and that will benefit
allos, aces, and everyone in between.
*Elle Rose, demisexual writer and educator*
Cody paints a wonderful picture of the struggles of coming to terms
with one's own asexuality. I related greatly to the idea of not
even having words for this stuff when I was in high school. You
don't have to feel broken and you certainly don't have to feel
confused! This book is an absolutely wonderful resource for
understanding what doesn't get talked about anywhere near
enough.
