I had a hard time relating to the main character. I think a part of it is because we are in the brain of an autistic woman, and I am not autistic, and that's why I pushed myself to keep reading, to confront my own ableism. However, her discourse about medication, also some internalised sexism around "beautiful" women was hard to read.
