The Spectrum Girl's Survival Guide by Siena Castellon
5.0
5 stars!
*quick disclaimer: I am not the intended audience for this book. This book is meant to be a guide for teenage girls with autism and that is not me. I do have a family member who is an autistic teenage girl and I used what I have seen her go through to help me while reading this book. *
TW: There were "triggers" mentioned in this book but, they were laid out factually and professionally.
This book was very insightful. I learned a lot. I had no idea how much autism can really affect someone despite living with an autistic person. Siena Castellon gave many personal stories and instances from her life to help make this book easier to understand and personal to her readers. I am impressed by the maturity of the writing and I see this being very helpful for many girls. I have multiple people I am buying this book for because it really did go in detail on many aspects of living with autism in a way that will be beneficial to the girls and their families who read this. Well done!
I would recommend that anyone with someone close to them that is an autistic teenage girl consider reading this book because it can give you insight that they might not yet be able to communicate to you themselves.
