Publisher Description

An Instant Indie Bestseller!

"The platonic love story of my dreams!" —Alice Oseman, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of Heartstopper

Dear Wendy's
Sophie and Jo, two aromantic and asexual college students, engage in an online feud while unknowingly becoming friends in real life, in this dual POV debut from Ann Zhao

Sophie Chi is in her first year of college and has long accepted her aroace (aromantic and asexual) identity. She knows she’ll never fall in love, but she enjoys running an Instagram account that offers relationship advice to students at her school. No one except her roommate can know that she’s behind the incredibly popular “Dear Wendy” account.

When Joanna “Jo” Ephron (also a first-year student and aroace) created their “Sincerely Wanda” account, it wasn’t at all meant to take off or be taken seriously. But now they might have a rivalry of sorts with Wendy’s account? Oops. As if Jo’s not busy enough having existential crises over gender identity, whether she’ll ever truly be loved, and the possibility of her few friends finding The One then forgetting her!

While tensions are rising online, Sophie and Jo grow closer in real life, especially once they realize their shared aroace identity. Will their friendship survive if they learn just who’s behind the Wendy and Wanda accounts?

Beaming Face with Smiling Eyes“I’m so grateful for this book 💜 I related to Sophie and Jo so deeply in such different ways. I had to keep stopping reading to remind myself to breathe.”
Loudly Crying Face“è quasi impossibile mettere nero su bianco tutto quello che questo libro mi ha fatto provare. ogni singolo capitolo mi faceva riflettere su un aspetto diverso dell’essere a-spec e su quanto sia soffocante la pressione sociale legata al concetto di “the one”, la persona giusta. ci insegnano che l’unico rapporto duraturo e importante nella vita sia quello con questa persona, con “l’anima gemella”, che deve per forza essere unə partner romantico, altrimenti la nostra vita sarà triste, solitaria e incompleta. ma non è così. l’amore vero ha tante forme e colori, e quello che jo e sophie trovano l’una nell’altra è speciale tanto quanto le relazioni romantiche delle loro amiche che fanno da contorno alla narrazione. consiglio questo libro sia aə fellow a-specs, ma anche e soprattutto a chi ancora insiste con l’ace discourse e col voler escluderci dalla comunità. magari leggere della nostra esperienza di vita può aprirvi gli occhi una volta per tutte.”
