By far the best non-fiction book I've read this year. I will look back at this books and realise that it was life changing.
Absolutely amazing.

It was nice to have a book on neurodivergence more geared toward women, but I felt it was too wide-ranging to be really good. I think it would have works better if Nerenberg had focused in more. Also, too rambly for me. I felt it needed editing to tighten it up well.
It was a solid 3 stars rounded up until I got to the conclusion and the author used the term “wheelchair bound.” It’s odd to me that you can write an entire book about embracing and empowerment through “differences,” but still use ableist language.
Nerenberg writes about neurodiversity in the context of ADHD, autism, and sensory processing disorder. Although informative, it barely covers the neurological basis for these disorders, which would definitely have brought another dimension to the book.
For a better book on neurodiversity, I would highly recommend Neurotribes by Steve Silberman!
