I'm back in good health and should start posting serious theory discussions instead of talking about football all the time.

Post ideas here. Upbearing comments will be interprebeared as an expression of interest.

It would be good etiquette to mention the length of the book, as it's relevant to choosing.

Funny! I just read Unmasking Autism and would recommend it, though it may not be for everyone (I say this as an Autistic person myself).

Not everyone is Autistic or even neurodivergent so it may not be applicable or useful for everyone. Enlightening but not "up there" in terms of a priority, perhaps?

That's why I would do it specifically in the Neurodivergence comm. It's applicable to everyone who's got strong neurodivergent traits or knows someone who does, but it's not as broadly applicable as, say, a book about men in general.

Hmmm, interesting idea, I guess.
