lighthearted discussion of an inner coming out as aromantic and asexual
4 stars
it's a pretty light-hearted read about a girl that thinks she's broken, but with the help of new friends realise she's actually aromantic and asexual!
read it a while ago, after it got recommended in a local aro/ace group (turned out a local library had a translation of this book, but we read it electronically in the English version).
there was a scene about "cheating" that we didn't like so much, but otherwise it was a nice read 💚🖤💜

it's a bit scary to start reading yet another piece of fiction, given the afantasia (and difficulty keeping track of characters and their relations), but we're giving this book/series a try. this book (first in series of four) is by the same author of the other short series I enjoyed plenty ("Monk & Robot").
there's a list of characters on Wikipedia, and it doesn't look too complicated.

slowly reading moss collection quoted A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers (Monk and Robot, #1)
It's been centuries since the robots of Panga gained self-awareness and laid down their tools; …
“You don’t, if you believe that. You’re an animal, Sibling Dex. You are not separate or other. You’re an animal. And animals have no purpose. Nothing has a purpose. The world simply is. If you want to do things that are meaningful to others, fine! Good! So do I! But if I wanted to crawl into a cave and watch stalagmites with Frostfrog for the remainder of my days, that would also be both fine and good. You keep asking why your work is not enough, and I don’t know how to answer that, because it is enough to exist in the world and marvel at it. You don’t need to justify that, or earn it. You are allowed to just live. That is all most animals do.”
