I first heard of Golem Girl from the Barbellion Prize. I was very intrigued to pick it up. Riva's story is depicted with details and pictures of the troubles and tribulations she and her family went through. I felt many points she made in living with a disability. Every disability is unique, but many share common themes. I learned from this story, which I always appriciate. I did have trouble with the flow of the story. Overall, highly recommend this memoir.
