What to expect
Fern Brady was told she couldn't be autistic because she's had loads of boyfriends and is good at eye contact. This is a story of how being female can get in the way of being autistic and how being autistic gets in the way of being the 'right kind' of woman.

Critics Review
-
Of course it’s funny – it’s Fern Brady – but this book is also deeply moving and eye-opening
ADAM KAY -
It made me laugh out loud and broke my heart and made me weep…I hope absolutely everyone reads this, and it makes them kinder and more curious about the way we all live
DAISY BUCHANAN -
Glorious. Frank but nuanced, a memoir that doesn’t sacrifice voice or self-awareness. And it has brilliant things to say about being autistic and being funny
ELLE MCNICOLL -
Fern is a brilliant, beautiful writer with a unique voice and even more unique story. Astute, honest and very, very funny.
LOU SANDERS -
So funny and brilliant
HOLLY SMALE -
An absolute riot. I’m literally going to read it again once I’ve finished, and I’m a miserable bastard…it’s a belter
