Disability Visibility (Adapted for Young Adults): 17 First-Person Stories for Today by Alice Wong

Really fantastic collection of essays and stories from people with a wide range of disabilities. Naturally, some chapters were more engaging and better written than others, but each story was insightful and opened my eyes to experiences I hadn't considered or thought very deeply about before.
I do wish the essays had been longer - I accidentally picked up the 'adapted for young adults' version from the library without realising, so I assume some essays may have been cut down, but I did feel this caused some stories to lack the depth and detail that I expected.
Overall, a great collection of stories that was quick to read but very enlightening and thought-provoking.
