I like this book, but I still feel that it's written from an outsiders perspective on what people with autism think and act.

Yikes. This book kind of went off the rails. I see what it was trying to do. .There's a bunch of other inaccuracies that are taking me out of the story. This story feels like someone took two hot button issues (autism and school shootings) and decided to write a story with minimal research or any perspective from autistic people. I'm so close to finishing so I might as well just keep going...

Books with characters that are on the spectrum are interesting, but it's kind of like reading someone's perspective of what they think autistic people should be. Of course, one autistic perspective is just one person's perspective, so who am i to say it's not true to life....
