Due to mostly male-focused research and media representation, autism is under- if not mis-diagnosed in women and girls. So I had hopes that this book could shed light on such a complex topic. It kinda did?
After a brief introduction on why women are underdiagnosed, the book follows this structure: symptoms description - comparison with a fictional character - tips on how to approach each of those symptoms in a woman in the spectrum.
Even though this isn't itself a bad thing, it didn't provide (to me at least) any new information, and I wish real people had been referenced - as well as people in the mild part of the spectrum; moreover, studies and papers had been used, but they were never directly referenced.
I wouldn't necessarily say this book is useless, and if you don't know anything about the topic and want to read into it, then go ahead!
Otherwise you might be disappointed.
