"A valuable and gentle introduction to the world of homoromantic asexuality and its place in queer culture and community . . ."--Booklist, "These texts stand out for their authentic depictions of LGBTQ+ teens; recommended for high school collections." --School Library Journal, This series starring LGBTQ+ characters explores teen romance through an intersectional lens. Jassie has feelings for two different people at her summer camp in We Three, but must navigate new territory when the three begin to date as a triad. In Ace of Hearts, Alvin grapples with others' expectations for his romantic life after he starts at a new school and realizes he is asexual. Charlie uses rom-com clichés to try to get a date to the prom with his dream guy only to fall for his wingman in Prom Kings. Against the backdrop of the protagonist's conservative family's expectations, What Makes You Beautiful follows Logan as she starts questioning her assigned gender and transitions to her true identity as Veronica. The books present vibrant, supportive queer communities, and characters are both ethnically and neurodiverse. Written at an upper-elementary reading level, these titles are on the longer side for hi-lo fiction, but the fast-moving YA romantic plots will keep readers engaged. VERDICT These texts stand out for their authentic depictions of LGBTQ+ teens; recommended for high school collections. --School Library Journal, "Alvin has known he was gay since he was a young boy, but when he transfers to a new high school, he grabs the opportunity to present himself as capital-G Gay: loud, proud, and no mistaking it. After a fabulous queer makeover, a group of gay and nonbinary students called The Trio offers to be his 'wing-gays' and set him up. But as they wonder whom his first time will be with, Alvin is beginning to realize that he may not be interested in a first time with anyone, ever. A valuable and gentle introduction to the world of homoromantic asexuality and its place in queer culture and community, the book also seamlessly includes helpful real-life resources like Julie Sondra Decker's The Invisible Orientation (2015), LGBT Youth Line, and AVEN (Asexuality Visibility Education Network). Alvin's emotional and sexual discoveries are handled with respect and earnest acceptance, but mature content (from erotic readings at bookstores to playing with dildos and flavored condoms at local sex shops) makes this most appropriate for teen readers."--Booklist

Synopsis
Everyone around Alvin seems to be obsessed with one thing--sex. Alvin finds it uncomfortable to think and talk about it and he knows he isn't ready. His friends, however, think that all Alvin needs is to hook up with the right guy, so they start a plan to set Alvin up with three different guys. First there's Allistair, a boy with strong ambitions. Second is Rowan, a trans boy. Third is Jesse, the popular heartbreaker. But the closer Alvin gets to being physical with someone, the more he's uncertain that this is for him and he begins to wonder if he's asexual. Can Alvin find the love that's right for him? Find out in this emotional high/low YA romance. Distributed in the U.S by Lerner Publishing Group

- v***v (2077)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
