An interesting and validating read

3 stars

Probably the first book I've read that specifically deals with late-diagnosed autism. While I didn’t find any of the strategies in the book particularly innovative or helpful, the advice seemed slightly more concrete than in other books. Still not actionable enough for me to fully grasp, I think. However, reading this felt very validating. Certain chapters really resonated.

TL;DR I think this is a great book to read early on in an adult diagnosis journey, but I'm still looking for something more.
