Description
Discover the infinite realms of asexual love across sci-fi, fantasy, and contemporary stories
From a wheelchair user racing to save her kidnapped girlfriend and a little mermaid who loves her sisters more than suitors, to a slayer whose virgin blood keeps attracting monsters, the stories of this anthology are anything but conventional. Whether adventuring through space, outsmarting a vengeful water spirit, or surviving haunted cemeteries, no two aces are the same in these 14 unique works that highlight asexual romance, aromantic love, and identities across the asexual spectrum.Product Details

Reviews
"This compelling collection offers readers so many opportunities to feel seen and connect. A first purchase for all teen collections."
--SLJ, starred review
--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
