Because I live with an ASD person I recognized so many of the thoughts recorded in this "Journal". Some of them made me laugh out loud. Anyone who is married should read this, anyone who knows someone with ASD or is related to someone with ASD should read this. Keep in mind this is one man's ASD. I would like a qualifier at the beginning of any book that touches on the subject of autism - it is a spectrum - therefore this may be sort of like the person you know with a similar diagnosis. You may recognize some of the symptoms and some of the therapies. But each spectrum person is different, so because you read Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nightime or this wonderful and funny book, doesn't mean you understand what it is to live with an ASD person or that you "get it." But read them anyway and keep trying. It's worth it and sometimes it's funny.
