"I saw a lot of other reviews stating that Ace Voices doesn’t really bring anything new to the table and while informational, it echoed many other books. <br/><br/>This was the first non-fiction book I’ve read about the Ace community and I loved this book. I learned so much and feel like a community that was completely unknown to me a couple years ago now seems more familiar. <br/><br/>I think the inclusion of interviews and quotes helped the book feel less clinical and more accessible. I also like that the author mentioned several times there is no one correct definition for terms used by the Ace community and that people shouldn’t feel forced into a box.<br/><br/>Thank you to Edelweiss for the advanced copy in exchange for an honest review."
