Unlock Now The Princess Who Didn’t Eat Cake Produced By S.L. Dove Cooper Released Through Publication

ebook contains the title story, two essays on demisexuality, and a list of suggested reading, The story was a nice little fairy tale, but it felt weak at points, and I'm not sure how helpful it would be in actually explaining demisexuality to someone.
However, I liked the essays, Once upon a time, people who weren't interested in sex or who weren't interested in sex to the expected level, or people who were only interested in sex with very particular people found each other and realised it was a thing, and started to support each other and make a space to talk about how it affected them.
And it was great, because it made people a little less alone,

But it's not always obvious to everyone that this describes them, that this is a useful community to have, etc.
So if you'd like to understand a little more about it via the medium of a fairytale, Lynn O'Connacht has got you covered and the booklet also includes an essay explaining things a little further, and a list of fiction which contains characters who share this experience.
The focus in this case is specifically demisexuality, but honestly I think it's something relevant to anyone on the asexual spectrum, or anyone curious about it.


Disclaimer: I helped to edit the nonfiction essay, and Lynn is a friend of mine.


You can find the ebook sitelinkhere! You'll be pleased to know that it's "pay what you want", so if things are tight, you can still pick it up.
This was a weird book but I still liked it, I found the other parts of the book to interesting too.
The book recommendations were great too, Cute fairy tale with a simplistic telling of how Demisexuality is, It could have been fleshed out much better and in some regards had a nice story, but it was a nice story.
Decent representation of a demisexual, It was very short and very simple, but it was clear in what it was trying to say although maybe to someone to whom the topic is "new", it may not have been enough without the text from afterwords.
I recently came across a concept that was new to me: demisexuality,
I wanted to learn more about it and I found a review of this book which suggested it would be an enlightening read.
So I did read it,

The first part of this very short book is a literary fairy tale,
As a fairy tale it fails to catch the reader's attention, it's way too plain even for this type of story just a poor excuse to develop the cake/sex metaphor.

As a metaphor it isn't great either, too obvious, too superficial, and sometimes it even does not make a lot of sense.


The second part is an article on demisexuality,
The author talks honestly about this label and it's difficult place under the ace asexual umbrella.

It isn't a deep study on it, it's just some personal views on the matter, but in my humble opinion that's probably enough for a simple book like this one.
This is the first time Ive found a story about demisexuality and I love it,

If I could give it more thanstars, I would, This does an excellent job at explaining demisexuality, Anyone who wants to learn about demisexuality and the ace spectrum can start with this novella, In addition to the short story, there is also an essay by Cooper in which they go into detail in regards to using cake as a metaphor for sex in this story, as well as a short list with books featuring aromantic and asexual characters.
Once upon a time there lived a princess, . .

When the kingdom discovers that their crown princess doesn't like cake, chaos ensues, How will the royal line ever continue Cake is essential to a good marriage! Not to mention, the rejection of his cake was deeply insulting to the bakerprince who proposed with it.


and the stableboy who loved her, . .

The princess befriends a stableboy, She's oblivious to the fact that he's in love with her, The stableboy does his best to explain to the princess what is so wonderful about cake, but it takes an arduous journey to convince her to try a slice.


in a kingdom that didn't want to understand, . .

The Princess who Didn't Eat Cake is a demisexual fairy tale, It aims to introduce people to the concept of demisexuality and to offer a rough idea of how the world may be experienced by people identifying on the asexual spectrum.
It offers both the titular fairy tale, a brief essay explaining what demisexuality is in more detail and a short list of books featuring demisexual characters for anyone who would like to see more representation in fiction.
Sweet and educational!

This was a fun read! It does well as an introduction to demisexuality, but has a slight tongueincheek tone that reminds me of The Enchanted Forest Chronicles by Patricia Wrede.
Cute story by an accomplished storyteller! This is a cute book that covers the topic of demisexuality, which is on both the sexual and asexual spectrums.
The book tells the story of a princess who didn't like to eat cake, when everyone around her simply loves cake.
It is an over simplified introduction to demisexuality, which is complicated at best, As a heterodemisexual, I enjoyed reading it, I will recommend it to those who have questions about demisexuality, The fairy tale itself was slightly tedious, but it makes the point, I actually enjoyed the essay and the extended author intro more, but they work together well, I'll be definitely recommending this one to everyone as a great introduction to demisexuality This was a cute but also very serious fairy tale about a demisexual princess, a stable boy, and cake.
The author has a great essay about demisexuality, too, and a list of recs for books with demisexual characters.


tw: suicide ideation

Una deliziosa è proprio il caso di dirlo fiaba sulla demisessualità, area ancora molto poco conosciuta dello spettro Aro/Ace.

Il libriccino si compone della fiaba vera e propria, un articolo sull'argomento e dei consigli di lettura per chi volesse leggere di altri personaggi aromantici o asessuali.

Forse la storia era un po' troppo semplificata perfino per il genere fiabesco, e non era molto chiara senza la postfazione dell'autrice per chi come me fosse completamente all'oscuro sull'argomento.

In ogni caso, una lettura interessante su un tema che non ha abbastanza rappresentazione nei media odierni.
