Adult Virgins Anonymous by Amber Crewe

5.0

Thank you to Netgalley and the Publisher for an ARC of this book.

Adult Virgins Anonymous was fantastic! I had the very best time reading it.

It is a well rounded, wonderfully written love story that has a very powerful message: Life is not a race.

Both main characters are not exactly where they should be according to society's standards and while it irks them, it is very clear that it irks them more because other people think they're weird .

The way this book is written and the way it deals with ideals and "normality" is absolutely great. Both Kate and Freddy are highly lovable characters, who just struggle a bit... generally. And that's okay. It's not me saying it's okay, it's the book saying it's okay.

Besides that, the book has amazing LGBTQ rep including asexuality, which is also discussed at the "Adult Virgins Anonymous" meetings. The general idea of this story is that it's okay to be a little different and to have different experiences to other people and having that sentiment in a book is like a whiff of fresh air that this society desperately needs.

I love this book with all my heart and can only recommend it to everyone.
