Think it’s a great starting point for a younger adult just starting out their journey. Well performed and organised too.
Most informative part for me was on the difficulty of getting support and the doubled edged nature of a medical diagnosis.

rosaok's review against another edition
didn't like this very much. the handling of gender was difficult and often upsetting - cis people please stop writing about gender.
i thought the pretty privilege chapter was misjudged as has every other discussion of pretty privilege i've ever come across. the acknowledgement that the experiences attributed to pretty privilege also happen very often to people without it makes it even stranger that the chapter was included at all.
finally the idea that getting diagnosed early in life is better than getting diagnosed as an adult is overly simplistic and late diagnosed neurodivergent people should probably stop framing it that way.
