The fourth novel from the phenomenally talented Alice Oseman, author of Solitaire and the graphic novel series Heartstopper – soon to be 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.

Important contemporary YA

Reviewed in India on 23 July 2020

⭐⭐⭐.75

I swear to goddess, Alice Oseman can make people question their sexuality at times with the way she interweaves all the description of various sexualities with her characters in her books.

Aero/Ace rep ftw. It has been portrayed
so beautifully. We Are Not Normal can learn a lot on how to write about people confused with their sexualities 🙃

Another coming of the age novel, which explores, friendships, all kinds of love, toxic relationships (for both the genders), sexuality set in the backdrop of a Shakespeare drama society at Durham Univ with lots of drama.

All in all, it's a good contemporary YA, set in Uni with a diverse & an adorable cast, where all of them are discovering themselves. It's vv current with our times in terms of the conversation & language the characters use & the pop culture they guzzle (NINE NINE!). It talks about the unrealistic expectations we have in mind before entering college, the sexual shaming culture, loneliness & the wanting to have an intimate connection with someone & the "right time" for relationships & such.

It did fall a bit short for me since it just went on and on at times so pacing wise, a bit of a problem & with some really redundant plot points as well. 😬

A must read young adult book💯

🌟🌈Reading Rush Day 1💫✨

*Birthstone: Amethyst

I ended up loving this book so much and I wasn't expecting to get so attached to the characters by the time I was just into 20 percent of the book.

Now they are literally my fictional family and I will protect them forever.

The story talks about exploring one's own sexuality and most importantly friendship and teamwork.

Through the characters, the author has done a remarkable job in explaining what asexuality and aromanticism mean and what they represent. I was laughing, crying and cringing (relatable moments, second hand embarassments you know) the whole time I was reading the book!

And who would have thought there would be a lot of Shakespeare stuff in this one?! Love that for all of us!

I loved all the characters, my favourites being Pip and Rooney. Damn, they're so cute and hilarious together!

This is such a wholesome read!

another diverse YA novel by oseman !!!

Reviewed in India on 2 October 2020

~let me just say this....every book written by alice oseman is soo important & utterly captivating with such cool characters & diversity at it’s best !!!
~loveless dealt with aromantic asexuality in such beautiful way that it keeps you warm & gives you hope that every human being no matter who is valid.
~so loveless follows our main character Georgia who never had any crushes in her 18 years of life & she feels weird about it & always wondering about how true romantic love feels like.....she recently got graduated from high school & started her education at university along with her very close best friends pip & jason.....now at university she has this new roommate “Rooney” who’s there to guide georgia with her inexperience in dating.....and also a senior named Sunil who is the president of the pride society & also georgia’s college mentor from whom georgia discovers more about her aro ace spectrum but it’s really a wild & emotional ride for georgia at university....dealing with her best friends & new friendships & her own sexuality.....it’s just too much !!! & finally there’s also a lot of shakespear drama going on in the entire book which might interest you.
~The main reason i always & always will pick up oseman novels is “platonic friendships”......what can i say they’re just beautiful the way alice oseman portrays them makes me want to be a part of those characters.
~Loveless has got aro ace, lesbian, bisexual, gay characters....it’s hella queer !!! & also poc characters.
~if you ever want to read about those pure friendships which will make your day brighter & happy kind then pick up a alice oseman book & you got what you wanted.
~loveless was one such important novel which i really adored....it has got simple writing style with perfect humor which will make you laugh & fall in love with it.

an important read

LOVELESS is a book that made me feel so seen, and I love it for that.

This novel follows Georgia as she goes through a journey of figuring out her sexuality and learning to accept and love herself. It's never crossed Georgia's mind that she may be aroace shes always just assumed - as everyone says - that eventually the right person will come along and she'll fall in love. Shes tired of waiting so decides that upon starting uni she's going to put herself out there more, only whilst she loves the idea of romance and sex she starts to realise that she can never quite imagine it for herself.

Georgia's coming to terms with her sexuality was very relatable to me in so many ways but especially in how she confuses platonic love for romance, and how crushed she feels coming to the realisation that as a lover of romance she'll never get to experience it for herself. I loved seeing my experiences reflected in Georgia and seeing how she was able to overcome this sadness and learn to love herself.

Seeing Georgia learn to accept her identity and realise that she wont ever be loveless because platonic love is just as important was truly such a wonderful thing to see (and did make me tear quite up a bit).

I did have some slight issues in that I would've liked more discussion on the ace spectrum. Georgia is sex repulsed which is totally valid but not all ace people are, and many ace people do have sex, I would've liked this to be acknowledged. All aroace experiences are different and they are all valid.

I also didn't like how Rooney's love of casual sex was in the end attributed to her using it as a coping method rather than just a love of sex cause some people do just love to have sex and I'm so tired of books always vilianizing casual sexual experiences.

Overall, I adored this and I'm so glad I was able to read it. It's not a perfect book but it was so important to me and I know it will be for many others too.

Compassionate story of self-discovery. Loved it!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 July 2020

‘Loveless’ by Alice Oseman tells the story of 18-year-old Georgia’s journey of self-discovery. It begins with her about to leave for University – a pivotal moment in her life, the first time living away from home and a catalyst for change. She’s going with her two best friends, but university will push her beyond these familiar friendships. Georgia has never had a boyfriend or girlfriend. But she decides it is at university where she’ll find someone to fall in love with and get to experience the romance her parents have. People keep telling her that her time will come and there is someone out there for her. Georgia is fed up with waiting for that time and person. She’s determined to throw herself into a university social life and find the destiny she’s seen in the countless rom coms she’s watched and read. But things don’t go smoothly or how she’d imagined. Her feelings don’t fit into anything she knows, causing her to berate and question herself. A new friend introduces her to the university Pride society where she first hears the terms asexual and aromantic. As Georgia becomes more confused about her love life, or lack of, desperation leads her to make questionable choices.

I’ve not seen other young adult books with an asexual protagonist and rarely see a minor character who is. This story brings understanding and much needed awareness. A loved one tells me how wonderful it is to finally see herself in a character and their experiences. She wishes she’d had this book to read a few years ago whilst struggling in a similar way to Georgia. She says that now, if someone doesn’t understand, she’ll refer them to read ‘Loveless’. I’m grateful to Alice Oseman for writing this book for her sake and because it has increased my own understanding. ‘Loveless’ is about far more than sexuality. Through an absorbing plot, and with a cast of loveable, entertaining characters, it’s a book about self-discovery, self-acceptance, friendship and finding yourself in a society where you feel the odd one, only to discover you have a place as exactly who you are. Heartachingly honest, compassionate and amusing in turns, I can’t recommend this book highly enough. I’ve already bought two copies and will be lending, gifting, and recommending it further.

Simply a must read

This book is wonderful. As an asexual, aromantic myself I was overjoyed when I found this book. The representation of Georgia's self discovery, and her coming out to her friends is perfect. I was nodding along and smiling. I read this book in a day, I couldn't put it down. Not only do I relate to Georgia's sexuality, I relate to her personality. We need more characters like Georgia! more books to represent aro-ace. Finishing this book was bittersweet. I felt like the author had taken all the thoughts out of my head and wrote them on paper. It felt a if the book was one gigantic hug. I didn't want it to end.. I really hope a movie is produced of this.

absolutely fantastic story and lovely characters and events. loved to see myself represented however i would recommend that you read when in a good mental space. Georgia's internal monologue hating herself for being forever alone kept reminding me of the thoughts and anxieties i had when i realised i was ace so be sure that you are prepared of that

A wonderful exploration of figuring out your identity, friendships and university. Alice Oseman doesn’t know how to write a bad book. Each of the characters in this book has flaws and it makes them even more loveable. This is a bunch of kids I’d love to be friends with! I thought the scene with the cousin was BRILLIANT.
