If you’re looking for inspiration porn, this isn’t it. This book is about the honest, lived experiences of one disabled woman with ableism, coming of age, and navigating a world designed to ostracize disabled people.
Her writing style is easy to follow, her descriptions vivid, and the care and soul outpouring that went into this book is evident.
A wonderful read to make you laugh, challenge your worldview, ask questions, and want to get coffee with the author.
