This book definitely has a distinct storytelling narrative style. It was quite interesting to learn about Laura who has had a fairly interesting life even if there was not an autism diagnosis involved. Reading this was very much a walk a mile in their shoes experience as opposed to feeling educated specifically about autism. I think this might be a good read for those who have been diagnosed/self diagnosed as adults, specifically woman or for someone who believes they may need to seek a diagnosis as an adult.
