I loved this. Lee’s writing provided what might appear as dry ‘Academy’ information in a funny and digestible way. It really left me with a lot of things to unpack and question as well as other books I want to read. Fantastic.

Mostly a really good, worthwhile, thought-provoking read. But the ableist language used to talk about autistics wasn't great!!
