Though I have to admit I liked the first book of the series a bit better than this one, it was a fun read and I'd put it into the "cosy mystery" genre, so if you like that, go have a look. Four stars for Aggie and Hector's second case! I'm looking forward to reading the third.
The book has some helpful info and is okay overall, though honestly it didn't do much for me personally - maybe because I spent a lot of time reading neurodivergent people's experiences and general info online before reading the book, so it felt a bit redundant. If you're new to the topic though, I think it might be a good starting point.

Why this book is called "What lives in the woods" is beyond me - the woods are only marginally involved, if at all. Most of the time the story takes place inside the manor... I'd say this book was rather average: not bad, but also not exceptionally good, and the explanation for the haunting and the ending of the book were rather obvious, imho.
