Resumen del Editor

The Ultimate Handbook for Success on the Spectrum–Written by and for Autistic People!

I feel like everyone else got a handbook with all the answers, and I never got my copy. This is a common thought among autistic people, because society is built with neurotypical people in mind—but that handbook has finally arrived. Even better, it was written by an autism activist who is on the spectrum himself.

Autistic influencer Daniel M. Jones is an expert on living well on the spectrum. No matter what you’re going through as someone with autism, Dan gets it—he’s been there. He’s here to explain everything he learned, and then some, in this instruction manual and memoir about life as an autistic person. Dan’s book is packed with actionable advice that listeners can immediately start putting into practice. You’ll learn how to navigate common challenges, such as dating on the spectrum, holding down a job, or performing well in school. Best of all, you’ll learn to improve your life while also empowering yourself.

Dan’s honesty, self-awareness, and sheer knowledge of autism make for a down-to-earth and relatable listen that anyone will enjoy. No matter where you are on the spectrum, you’ll love this hilarious and comprehensive guide to living an excellent life as an autistic adult.

Autism for Adults: Here’s a bunch of stories about being a kid

Most of the book relates to being in elementary or high school and about 25% from working as an adult. Includes tips for getting through the school day and taking notes in class. I wasn’t very engaged by the content.

Fantastic book

I learned so much. I also love his YouTube channel TAW. I think that’s what it’s called. Anyway the book is really interesting and my favorite parts were the actionable items at the end of each chapter and the glossary at the end. Everyone who’s autistic or who knows someone autistic probably should read this book. 10/10!

Good book but too many blanket statements

This 2 hour book was full of decent information and tips to help with learning and social life people struggling with their autism. I listened to it twice. My biggest qualm is that the author says a lot of things like, “you know exactly what I’m talking about” and “I know everyone will understand this” but that’s just not true and I think it’s harmful to the autistic community to make statements that make all autistic people seem homogenous. So many people do things around me and say, “but you’re autistic so you like this kind of thing?” And it’s because of authors like this who make it seem like we’re all the same.

The author also made it seem like having to be sat next to someone with Schizophrenia in school was absolutely horrible and like no autistic person should have to be subjected to it. That’s SO RUDE. Why should neurotypical people have to sit next to autistic people then? Promoting inclusivity of autism while simultaneously crapping on Schizophrenia is messed up.

Overall, There’s plenty of tips, but this book was not worth the cost to me. I’ve learned a lot more from YouTube creators than this two hour book. Not that it didn’t have some good information, but not enough. And it was presented in too much of a homogeneous way that paints all autistic people as the same. It’s a spectrum. And this is just one cis white guy from the UKs view on it all. Definitely not as helpful or relatable for autistic women in the US who have wildly different experiences.

Horrible narration

As a fellow neurodivergent, the narration in this audiobook is difficult to listen to. It sounds like he is struggling through his own thoughts and not narrating a book.
