Easy read - each chapter is relative to a trait or “issue” with concise thoughts and insights that can be really useful if living or working with autistic people. (2 more)
Thought provoking and moving in ways I hadn’t anticipated.
A book I can share with my eldest daughter and other family members in the hope they can make connections or learn how to better interact with my youngest autistic daughter.
Nothing this book can solve - I’d just like a female perspective too as female autism has other traits and separate difficulties. (0 more)
Insightful!

I couldn't take my eyes off the screen, I love horrors and most of the time their cliche but this was epic, the music creating a dramatic atmosphere. The story of loss and life, the risks they took every day to survive.

The way to defeat the creatures was realised by the daughter and it was a truly mesmerising moment between mother and daughter.

I bet the second one they become one hell of a team to remove the rest of the alien creatures from earth.

"My daughter Tyson and I went to hear Allende talk in Stockholm at Kulturhuset, which was great. I love her so much, and often think about her telling us how in the first days of January every year she starts a new book. I adore the picture of her always dressed up to the nines in heels and makeup, walking out to her shed in back of her garden... like a warrior going into battle... and then giving like people me a chance to fly with those tales... “Daughter of Fortune” is a fantastic adventure."
