This is one of the first books I've read about neurodiversity from a neurodiverse person. 

I'm on my own journey, and I appreciated reading a story that echoed feelings I had growing up and experiences that I still have today. 

I found occasionally it repeated something that had been said, but that's not a bad thing just an observation. 

This is another tool that can help me on my own self discovery, and I hope will help me feel better that I'm 33 trying to figure this out. 

I've listed some triggers in the list, but those triggers are labelled in the book as well.

As an autistic person, I have settled for crumbs when autistic people are represented in the media which makes it more refreshing that, along with Hannah Gadsby's memoir, there are mainstream platforms for unapologetically autistic perspectives.

Hands down one of the best books ever, as well as one of the best ND resources I've consumed. I felt very seen and reminded that I'm worthy of good things. I definitely will be forcing all of my ND friends to read this.
