this is one of the most special books i’ve read. having an autistic female main character is so refreshing. it felt like reading a diary many times - my copy is dog eared so much it’s hard to find a page that’s not, because of how much i related to her feelings and thoughts. it’s laugh out loud funny, lighthearted, yet also so deep and emotional. the ending is perfection, the foreshadowing is genius, and the character arc is beautiful.
