I joined the zoom virtual launch night but missed the memo PJs or Glitter & Glam and arrived “just finished work, tired and weary look”

I did what any self respecting person would do I switched off the camera, no need to highlight my inability to read the memo

Drama Queen

Incisive, poignant, informative

I laughed and cried in equal measures as i journey through the book. A witty autobiography sprinkled with sadness.

The book painted a picture of a girl navigating her way through life. Sara clearly struggled and yet so many missed the obvious diagnosis and instead provided her with many inappropriate and unhelpful labels.

Instead of adjustments they asked her to “try harder”, as I if she wasn’t trying.

I love that she has now found her path:

“autism neither an affliction nor a superpower … it’s the blueprint of who I am”

To sum up the book in 4 words:

funny. poignant wise. informative

What I love 💕 even more is her Podcast, Aut-hour, that has introduced me to a diverse range of authors and a long list of books to read 📚
