Let's Talk About Love

fullDescription

Striking a perfect balance between heartfelt emotions and spot-on humor, this debut features a pop-culture enthusiast protagonist with an unforgettable voice sure to resonate with listeners. Alice had her whole summer planned. Nonstop all-you-can-eat buffets while marathoning her favorite TV shows (best friends totally included) with the smallest dash of adulting-working at the library to pay her share of the rent. The only thing missing from her perfect plan? Her girlfriend (who ended things when Alice confessed she's asexual). Alice is done with dating-no thank you, do not pass go, stick a fork in her, done. But then Alice meets Takumi and she can't stop thinking about him or the rom com-grade romance feels she did not ask for (uncertainty, butterflies, and swoons, oh my!). When her blissful summer takes an unexpected turn and Takumi becomes her knight with a shiny library-employee badge (close enough), Alice has to decide if she's willing to risk their friendship for a love that might not be reciprocated-or understood.

     November 13, 2017
     College student Alice Johnston, 19, is in the closet—sort of. Her friends and family know that she is bisexual, but what they don’t know (and what Alice isn’t really ready to tell them) is that she’s also asexual. Alice is hurt when Margot, her roommate and girlfriend, breaks up with her, but she isn’t surprised. Giving up on love seems to be the best solution until Takumi enters the picture. Registering an unprecedented “black” rating on Alice’s “Cutie Code,” Takumi makes Alice’s heart beat faster than normal, and their developing friendship allows Alice to slowly begin to reveal things about herself, her friendship with Feenie and Ryan (her now-engaged best friends from high school), and her family. Debut novelist Kann thoughtfully tackles what it means to be asexual and gives Alice a platform to discover who she is and what it means for her relationship with Takumi. Asexual readers will appreciate the visibility, and those—like Alice’s ex—who know poorly understand it, will gain a better sense of what love without sex can look like. Ages 13–up.

   • content: Adenrele Ojo's narration has a natural buoyancy that transforms the ups and downs of 19-year-old Alice's dating life into a lively audio performance. Alice fully embraces--though she occasionally struggles with--her asexuality, and she isn't prepared when coming out as "ace" causes her girlfriend to split. So for Alice, this summer is all about her best friends and binge-watching her favorite TV shows until she meets her handsome new co-worker, Takumi. Ojo channels his cool, confident voice while expertly contrasting it with Alice's excitable and spirited tones. Emotions run high as romantic sparks fly, and Ojo's warm, powerful performance captures Alice's path to conquering her uncertainties surrounding identity, friendship, and romance with a spunk and wit as unforgettable as Alice herself.
