I really enjoyed the latter half of this book especially the chapter now I have opinions. I feel like her take on ableism and the word disabled and how people view autistic people are actually quite good and well informed. I enjoyed the snippets of science and psychology that she has throughout the book. I didn’t enjoy the first half as much but that’s maybe because I don’t relate too much to how her autistic traits showed up when she was a child. I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would considering what I’ve seen on tiktok.
