A review by madradstarchild
The Maid by Nita Prose
Did not finish book. Stopped at 45%.
This is a clear instance of a neurotypical author writing from the "perspective" of a neurodivergent-coded character without actually understanding how neurodivergence works. It's ableist that she assumes someone who doesn't understand social cues will be too "innocent" to realize she's being lied to/manipulated into abetting crimes . This is an ableist caricature of neurodivergence and it's going to perpetuate inaccurate assumptions about neuodivergent people. 0/5
Graphic: Bullying, Ableism, and Murder
Moderate: Drug use, Death of parent, Gaslighting, and Toxic friendship
Minor: Cancer and Alcohol
