Not sure what the point was. It’s basically a collection of stories about people who said something that made the author figure something out about herself. Very little actually advice for the rest of us.
It’s more a collation of other literature than it is a book. Like a long, boring, annotated bibliography with some personal insights along the way. I’m not sure there was any real reason to publish this instead of just publishing a blog post with links to what other people have already said on the topic.
It’s a shame because the introduction was fantastic and really grabbed my interest.

I felt so seen. I need to read it again and to go back and highlight and research. This is such a great resource, especially for the intelligent over achievers who got by because they were “smart” but lost it in adulthood as their neurodivergence intensified. Highly recommend if not to understand yourself, maybe to understand and empathize with others.
I could not get passed her using outdated terms like Asperger’s which 10 years outdated by the time she wrote it. So it made me wonder what else is wrong.

I related SO much to this book. Within the first couple paragraphs I was already hit with relatability. I read this book so fast. Couldn’t put it down! If you think you may be Neurodivergent especially as a woman then for sure read this!

couldn't get past the introduction. comparing the neurodivergent struggle to fit in to the civil rights movement is not ok. also, the continued use of the term "asperger's" is harmful & no longer accurate.
also, no mention of nonbinary folks who were socialized as women - this is a huge part of the community!!
