Review of 'Divergent Mind' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

I found the first half very helpful; the second half less so. Much of what was said about women is no doubt true of men as well (for example, many of the experiences she described are things I share with my son), but it is true that autism and ADHD are often overlooked in girls and women and so many women suffer in silence for years. This kind of book might help some of them begin to understand their struggles.

The book was all right. However, I didn't take with me anything that stood out.

"Thriving in a world that wasn't designed for you," may have been an over-promise. While you CAN thrive as a person with ADHD, autism, Asperger's, etc., you'll definitely need something more than this book.
