I'm looking for book recommendations of books that have autistic characters, reading level of young adult and up. Not ones where you could argue that the character is autistic, but where the character is definitely written to be autistic.
I finished reading the Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime and I really enjoyed it. I felt I could really identify with how the character thinks and acts at time. I also think it helped me learn a bit more about how others experience autism. I would love to read more like it.
I have just finished reading The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion. Apparently it’s the first book in a trilogy so I’m now keeping an eye out in charity shops and second hand bookshops for the other two books.
