Welcome to the first official Reasons to Read ramble! This ace week, I’ll be highlighting 7 books with acespec characters and we’re kicking off with a perfect book for this season: Stake Sauce Arc 2: Everybody’s Missing (Somebody) by RoAnna Sylver!
This is the sequel to Arc 1, “The Secret Ingredient Is Love. No, Really”, and features the continued adventures of Jude, Pixie and their friends and I’m here to ramble about just SOME of the many reasons to read this absolutely awesome book. (Read book 1 first, though.)
Stake Sauce Arc 2 will be available October 31st this year, so if you’d like to get it through eretailers like Amazon or Kobo, you may have to wait a few more days. Otherwise you can preorder it on Itch.io: https://itch.io/s/33987/stake-sauce-book-2-pre-order-special (where you’ll also get book 1 and a short story collection for free!)
Earlier this, er, month (I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS WASN’T EVEN A MONTH AGO), a dear friend released a book! That I read! And loved! And wanted to talk about a bit. So I combined slides with my general rambliness and TADA! A rambly promo video thing was created!

Today on this last day of Aromantic Awareness Week, I’m talking about my own books because hi! I’m an arospec indie author.
In this video, I basically talk a little bit about what you can expect of the books (YMMV on whether you consider some points spoilers) and what you can expect of the representation in the books.
If any of the books has caught your fancy, here are some handydandy links to save you looking them up.

It’s Day 6 of Aromantic Awareness Week and the generalised book mentions continue! The idea behind this section is that I take commonly requested genres or tropes and list books that /also/ contain aromantic characters (in prominent roles).
There’s a grand total of 12 books I’m covering in this section.
Covered in this video are:
Scifi
Pre-2014 aro-coded rep
Books coming in 2020

It’s Day 5 of Aromantic Awareness Week and it’s time for some more generalised book mentions. The idea behind this section is that I take commonly requested genres or tropes and list books that /also/ contain aromantic characters (in prominent roles).
There’s a grand total of 12 books I’m covering in this section, but you’ll quickly see why I’m grumbling about the amount of aromantic representation currently out there. (Short version: We need more.)
Covered in this video are:
Aromance (i.e. romance tropes but with aromantic leads)
Contemporary YA
Fantasy

It’s Day 4 of Aromantic Awareness Week and it’s time to shake things up a bit! Now that I’ve shared with you all my personal favourites, it’s time to ask “But how can you find aromantic characters yourself? Where do you look? What do you look for?”
Thankfully, there are plenty of awesome resources out there to help you find exactly the book for you!
From Claudie Arseneault’s amazing AroAceDatabase to curated lists, finding aromantic recommendations are only a search string away!
Some links to get you started:
