Definitely made me realize how often disability gets overlooked in public spaces.
Gave me hope that a care-centered community is possible.
Although a lot of the material talked about is sad (check TW), overall I felt the tone of the book was extremely hopeful, and I found the intimate look at care-centered communities beautiful and spiritual.

It’s a book that is simultaneously not for me and everything I need. It’s not an introductory text to disability justice but maybe it should be?
Since it is a collection of essays, it is occasionally repetitive but that doesn’t take away from the collection and how loving it is.
I’ve seen a few other reviews that mention this but this book is not medical advice and I think the author does make sure to cover that, even when it’s more concrete tips.
CW: abuse, suicide, ableism, misogyny, racism and probably more. Take care of yourself.
