This was the first book I picked up to learn more about being autistic since being late diagnosed. I can see how the book is helpful for highly masked autistics. I do feel the book was generalized.

This was a mixed bag for me.
I definitely learned a lot about certain perspectives around how autism can be presented and experienced by various people groups which I found helpful and informative.
I also felt at times like this was much more opinionated than factual which as someone reading simply to learn more about autism I was a bit confused by.

Here's one to own, re-read, recommend, share, and mark up with highlighter and marginalia. Sparking so much thought and feeling, never afraid of confronting the complex and contradictory, honest and brave, Devon Price 's writing is compelling and engaging. Here he has unmasked a society where neurodiversity is necessary, but can be deadly.

Weird blurring of lines of mental disabilities, physical disabilities, and gender issues. No acknowledgement of the toxic culture of more radical queer/gender theory activists. A lot of insights and points taken from 2010's Tumblr but not cited.
