Critics Review
Lambda Literary Award FinalistChildren’s Book Council Teachers & Librarian Favorite Book“This compelling collection offers readers so many opportunities to feel seen and connect. A first purchase for all teen collections.” –SLJ, starred review
“Themes of grief, community expectations, resilience, self-esteem, and queer joy are woven throughout this anthology […] readers hungry for intersectional ace (and frequently also aro) representation will be pleased to see a range of queer identities, racial backgrounds, and disabilities.”–Kirkus Reviews“Dyer expertly delivers on the collection’s premise of creating a variety of colorful, aspirational places to which queer and aroace readers might flock and find community, belonging, and representation.” –BCCB
“Being Ace is an essential YA anthology. It’s a perfect palette that paints the richness of asexuality, in all its many shades and hues. This is the first anthology I’ve read that really gets what it means to be authentically, honestly ace. Fantastic!” -Saundra Mitchell, bestselling editor of All Out, Out Now and Out There
