Things I Should Have Known was excellent and featured an extremely important secondary character was is on the spectrum. What to Say Next was AMAZING and the male protagonist is on the spectrum. I loved both and highly recommend them! :D<br /><br />Have a great week. =)<br /><br />Alyssa @ <a href="http://eaterofbooks.blogspot.com/2017/04/review-flame-in-mist-by-renee-ahdieh.html" rel="nofollow">The Eater of Books!</a>Alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00128004483437247740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-684027019772463164.post-33238497978547350662017-04-23T00:32:12.525-07:002017-04-23T00:32:12.525-07:00I had no idea Lady Midnight had an autistic charac...I had no idea Lady Midnight had an autistic character!

After reading your comment, I did some further research on How to Saw I Love You Out Loud and decided your suggestion of Queens of Geek would be a better choice in terms of representation. I've changed my post and made a note to reflect this.

Jordyn basically treats her brother like garbage the whole book and then *~learns to love him and appreciate him~* bc her love interest asks her why she didn't tell him her brother was autistic, and it's because she's ashamed of him. I'm really tired of reading books like that. <br />I did really love Queens of Geek, which has a woman with Aspergers as a main character.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03058677635983323040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-684027019772463164.post-51328713368003931962017-04-22T04:16:55.688-07:002017-04-22T04:16:55.688-07:00I didn't know about most of these having autis...I didn't know about most of these having autistic main characters.
