I feel likeeeee I'm personally a little bit done with neurotypical authors writing from the perspective of people on the spectrum?? For me, Rose's behavior was often a little too convenient for the narrative.
IDK, I thought it was pretty telling that in the afterword, AMM mentions visiting a school for students on the ASD spectrum and thanking the director for talking with her and reading over her narrative. OK but did you... talk to the kids? Did you have the kids read it? Like, it felt like she understood how Rose's tics would present themselves but maybe not why Rose would find those behaviors comforting??
Probably a lot of neurotypical kids who haven't read anything ELSE from the POV of a neurodivergent character might find this book interesting, especially if they're also interested in dogs?
