WINNER OF THE YA BOOK PRIZE 2021
LONGLISTED FOR THE POLARI CHILDREN’S & YA BOOK PRIZE 2022 A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The fourth novel from the phenomenally talented Alice Oseman, author of Solitaire and the graphic novel series Heartstopper – now a major Netflix series. It was all sinking in. I’d never had a crush on anyone. No boys, no girls, not a single person I had ever met. What did that mean? Georgia has never been in love, never kissed anyone, never even had a crush – but as a fanfic-obsessed romantic she’s sure she’ll find her person one day. As she starts university with her best friends, Pip and Jason, in a whole new town far from home, Georgia’s ready to find romance, and with her outgoing roommate on her side and a place in the Shakespeare Society, her ‘teenage dream’ is in sight. But when her romance plan wreaks havoc amongst her friends, Georgia ends up in her own comedy of errors, and she starts to question why love seems so easy for other people but not for her. With new terms thrown at her – asexual, aromantic – Georgia is more uncertain about her feelings than ever. Is she destined to remain loveless? Or has she been looking for the wrong thing all along? This wise, warm and witty story of identity and self-acceptance sees Alice Oseman on towering form as Georgia and her friends discover that true love isn’t limited to romance. ‘A joyous, disarmingly honest book that seems to leap right inside the mind of a teenage girl’ Independent [now iNews] ‘Loveless is an ode to friendship and platonic soulmates; this cosy blanket of a novel understandably won the YA Book Prize 2021’ Irish Times ‘A joyful tale of self-discovery” The Bookseller TweetReviews
I liked it because there was rude words and it was funny and dramatic.
Exellent

4/5
Thought it had a bit of a slow start but I loved the ending
Georgia is ready for university but she's still alone . She makes a plan to find her love in university but was not easy and she couldn't understand why romance seems so easy for others and not for her. Im the end she discover that she's an asexual, aromantic girl
Alice Oseman's Heartstopper series is very popular in our school library. This book will be perfect for fans of that book. It's a coming of age story which follows the experiences of Georgia in her first year of university as she navigates new friendships and explores relationships. Georgia doesn't feel she fits in anywhere and the story sensitively follows her journey of discovery, realisation and self-acceptance as an aromantic asexual. The characters are great and the group of friends' adventures at university at Durham are fun. I'd definitely recommend this to others.
GeorgiaWarr and her drama . She likes her two best friends from ages, Felipa who is gay and in the end admitted that have feelings for Rooney ( Georgia roommate in University) and Jason who try a relationship with Georgia but didn't work . Sunglasses will help Georgia to discover what is wrong with her? Why she can't have attraction for a male ? Maybe female? Is actually not one of this , Georgia doesn't like any sex not M not F
It's an absolutely amazing book! My favourite characters were Pip and Georgia. Mianly Pip though because she's hilarious and not afraid to be herself.
this book was almost a five, if it wasn't for the slow start. in my opinion there was a bit too much repetition in the beginning about how georgia, the main character, was feeling about her sexuality. however the rest of the book was really great! i thought it was really well paced and the characters were all likeable. i liked how there weren't too many characters introduced, so all of them had depth. i read this almost non stop and hadn't realised how much time had passed! i would definitely recommend to anyone 12-20. i may not have had the university experience yet, but i thought it was relatable nonetheless. my favourite character was sunil because he was really friendly and i could see myself in him. overall it was a great read!
I was expecting more from this book as I had loved Radio Silence and it had won the young adult book award. It was still a lovely book about teenage relationships.
This book was honestly such a great story, we have Georgia as a protagonist, and it depicts her journey discovering that she’s asexual. I haven’t read many books with an asexual protagonist, and it was a great way to expand my reading and open my eyes to things I hadn’t considered before. There is a great WLW subplot romance, with both lesbian and pansexual representation, and it was overall a great and emotional read.
