I'm curious about the not being diagnosed but ready to be institutionalized aspect. As a mom wouldn't you get a proper diagnosis? See the books about the spectrum touch a nerve with me. I am curious enough to add it to my reading list!stacybuckeyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16811500448951042300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-732959079498905602016-10-23T09:49:21.526-04:002016-10-23T09:49:21.526-04:00I have really enjoyed Carolyn Parkhurst in the pas...I have really enjoyed Carolyn Parkhurst in the past and have been very curious about this one!Kailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-45918628040429234622016-10-22T11:48:41.156-04:002016-10-22T11:48:41.156-04:00I've heard of this and considered it, but wasn...I've heard of this and considered it, but wasn't sure. I like that you mention that the author has a child on the autistic spectrum so she knows how to write this respectfully. I have a grown child on the spectrum and hesitate to read fiction with similar folks represented, but this one sounds interesting, so thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-30147288448295807592016-10-22T11:01:42.709-04:002016-10-22T11:01:42.709-04:00This sounds interesting.
