The Reason I Jump: The Inner Voice of a Thirteen-Year-Old Boy with Autism by Naoki Higashida

5.0

After reading The Kiss Quotient I wanted to know more about the day to day life experiences of someone with autism. This was recommended at the end of the Kiss Quotient and I snagged it and was blown away. Written by a 13-year old Japanese boy with autism, who used a cardboard keyboard to communicate, he gives surprisingly straightforward insight into his world, life, and the world of autism. It's a quick and insightful read that honestly, anyone who exists in this world should read.
