challenging emotional reflective fast-paced

4.0

Though there is a large correlation between autistic people and queer people, it's sometimes challenging to find books from that lived experiences. I am grateful to Dale, as a gay autistic trans woman, for putting her story out there to share what those intersections look like for her. 

A lot of Dale's personal story is emotionally heavy and tragic, but she ends the book on a positive and hopeful note.

jc_wb's review

challenging informative reflective medium-paced

Not rating this as it's a memoir. 

Really good. Difficult to read at times due to the subject but I'm really glad I read it.
