Thank you for this recommendation. I bought the audio book and am enthralled. Nearly done and appreciate so much the compassionate thoughtful way Sol approached late diagnosis (my story). I don’t always resonate with his intellect but I sure do mesh with his heart. If you’re late diagnosed or just think you may be autistic, 100%, this book is a kind gentle and deeply informative read that will answer questions you have and spark thinking that would be difficult to reach without Sol’s help.

I’m not yet done with the book, but I am highlighting so many passages (a reason I bought it as an e-book, because I can’t bear to mark up a print book) that I can safely tell you that I appreciate how much the book resonates with me and gives me new insights into my brain. It’s one I wish I could give other people to read in its entirety, but I’m realistic about that, so I am sending them quotes from the book. The title of the first chapter, “When the Person Who Stole Your Identity is You,” was so hard-hitting to me that I had to put the book away and return to it when I knew I could give it full focus. Thank you again for reviewing and recommending this book.

YES! So glad to hear it. My digital copy is so highlighted it I might as well just make the whole thing yellow 😆
