This was such an interesting memoir. It's quite short and Poe has a very casual writing style which meant I flew through it but it is a very hard read at times. I felt so immersed in their past life experiences, lots of which are traumatic so it's a real emotional rollercoaster. I wouldn't necessarily recommend this for a reader who knows nothing about autism, since it's such a personal account, but if you're looking to expand on what you already know this would be a valuable book.
