This is for the Just Not Into It book box, scheduled to go out after labor day.

I got about half way through this. I admire Deborah Thorsos greatly for the way she's met the challenges in her life, but this book could have done with some better editing.

I bought this from a $2 rack outside of Twice Sold Tales. As I often say, you can find good and interesting books on these carts.

I am taking this out of the Just Not Into It Book Box II organized by waternixie of Everett, Washington.

Thanks for organizing this book box and donating this book, waternixie.

It was interesting to read the memoirs of a woman diagnosed with autism. She is roughly the same age as me and she grew up in the same geographic area in which I grew up. I found it interesting to read about her childhood. I recognized many of the dolls and toys that she described.

I was amazed at the author's detailed memory. I feel as though it gives us insight into the way an autistic person thinks. I think that the author had a difficult time summarizing or integrating all the details of her life. Details of very mundane things were given. Yet, I was impressed at the author's honesty and how hard she worked to overcome her disabilities.

This book is going into the Memoirs bookbox organized by mrsjones. It will traveling to HDeaton27 next.
