i think every autistic person should read this whether a kid, an adult or undiagnosed. i feel it portrays really well the spectrum of traits in autism and how it’s so very not just “one look”. every autistic person is different and experiences it in a different way.
quarter of a star taken off because it’s a middle grade book which i think id have enjoyed much more if i was younger but was still very good.
