Synopsis

Seen through the eyes of an Asperger's female - who can be harder to detect - this immersive memoir shares a fascinating, absorbing, and emotive coming-of-age story. Struggling to appear 'normal' amid a dysfunctional family life, the protagonist's inspirational tale highlights the strengths found in diversity.

Experience compelling adventures and experiences that follow her childhood and adolescent journey of self-discovery. With cohesive storytelling that leaves you longing for more, this must-read offers a perspective rarely portrayed in literature, one that both enlightens and entertains. It's an inside look at success despite adversity as well as a valuable glimpse into the rarely portrayed mind of an Asperger's girl pushing back against social norms in her quest to thrive as her true self.
