Welcome to Litsy!

I was reading this book and wound up talking with someone about it then dats later, they gifted me this bracelet.

Readers are the best!

This was a fascinating memoir. Cole has a brain the size of a lemon in her brain, which went undiagnosed until her mid-twenties. Her struggle to adapt to life with, what she thought, were multiple learning disabilities would be tough to read if Cohen weren‘t so wry and engaging. It‘s worth the read for her perspective alone.

👍👍👍

This is an excellent exploration of neurodiveristy, terminology definition (which was so helpful!), and applying queer theory. It took a long time to get around to what the author meant by neuroqueer theory, but she explains it extremely well, and everything leading up to it aptly broadened my understanding before we got there. There's a lot from this book that I take away to use in my life both in understand and making space for neurodiveristy.

This one was cute, but there were still some difficulties for the couple to work through.

Ah, this one might be my favorite so far. It was intense, dramatic, sweet, all mashed up together. Things are really starting to take a turn and get good.

That ending! The rest of the volume had some nice moments, we did experience some time jumps. Then the ending...it was a cliffhanger. I'm immediately going to start the next one.
