tazian 's review for:
Odd Girl Out: My Extraordinary Autistic Life
by Laura James
I enjoyed reading about a woman on the spectrum. Even though she doesn't go through her whole life she does through how having autism in different parts of her life affected her. And even though she says she doesn't get feelings she explains them really well (though that might be cause I feel feelings pretty much the same way she does). There are many traits that I find similar with her, and though there are other times I can say I definitely don't have that problem I 'get' it, it makes sense to me. The book has made me look at my world in a new light. It has also made me very grateful, though I have many similar nuances/differences as the author my family made many of these differences seem 'normal' or not weird. After reading about Laura's life, I just feel lucky about how my life turned out and my prospects of the future as well.
