About this listen

Jordan O'Neill isn't a fan of labels, considering he has a few. Gay, geek, a librarian, socially awkward, a nervous rambler, an introvert, an outsider. The last thing he needs is one more. But he when he realizes adding the label "asexual" might explain a lot, it turns his world upside down.

Hennessy Lang moved to Surry Hills after splitting with his boyfriend. His being asexual had seen the end of a lot of his romances, but he's determined to stay true to himself. Leaving his North Shore support group behind, he starts his own in Surry Hills, where he meets first-time-attendee Jordan.

A little bewildered and scared, but completely adorable, Hennessy is struck by this guy who's trying to find where he belongs. Maybe Hennessy can convince Jordan that his world hasn't been turned upside down at all, but maybe it's now - for the first time in his life - the right way up.

Glen is a new to me narrator who did a great job at narrating this fantatic story. Jordan is an awkward man who loves to say Motherf*cker all the time, and has a crush on the headphone guy who is on his afternoon bus. Hennessy runs Asexual meetings and Jordan turns up to see his Headphone guy is the person running the meeting. This book is hilarious, wonderful and 100% perfect. N.R Walker has out done herself

This is a much needed exploration of asexuality. Jordan is an insecure gay man coming terms with his lack of sexual desire. He is romantically attracted to Hennessy who he sees on the bus each day. I gained some insight into the elusive nature of asexuality and liked most characters, but found Jordan’s self-centred ramblings harder to love. Was it the result of immaturity or narcissism? Either way, it got in the road. I also felt the coincidences were a little too unrealistic.
