I wanted to like this book, but honestly, the way that Molly was depicted really gave me the ick. Her whole thing is that she is clearly autistic, but instead of actually acknowledging her autism, the author leaned into some very demeaning autistic stereotypes, and the character was constantly infantilized by both the author and the other characters within the story.
