Tilly in Technicolor zooms in on neurodiversity over the course of one fairytale summer in Europe (with a practical purpose).  Fresh out of high school, ADHDer Tilly’s ideal future is to skip college and become a writer, but her parents want her to be a girlboss like her ivy-league-educated sister.  That’s how she finds herself on a cross-continental tour building Mona’s nail polish brand—little did she know she’d meet a cute autistic photographer on the flight to London.  Amidst overwhelm, hyperfocus, and unadulterated joy, Tilly and Ollie go from enemies to friends to lovers as they realize they have more in common than they thought.  Mazey Eddings’s YA debut is another beautiful example of neurodivine love.
