Review # 1 was written on 2015-12-08 00:00:00 PAUL FITZGERALD I struggled to get going with this, perhaps because my childhood was so different growing up in a city. Once past that I became increasingly engrossed. The section on the mental hospital was particularly memorable although disturbing. I like the way that the mood became more positive, particularly following diagnosis, I think it sends out a good message. Overall I enjoyed the book and felt it added to my readings on the subject.

Review # 2 was written on 2014-08-17 00:00:00 Jeff Keckler This was a bit difficult to follow in some places but after it gets going, it has some very valuable information. I admire Jen's ability to put her thoughts into words, as well as her bravery for sharing her story. I recommend this book to anyone wanting a first-hand account of what life with Asperger's can be like, especially from a place of not knowing. It was through Jen's lecture that a family friend attended, that the suggestion that my daughter may have Asperger's came. This led to her diagnosis as well as my realisation of my own need for assessment. I will always have a special place in my heart for her because of this.
