Reader Reviews for Mess is Progress
Honest, intelligent and beautiful
“The beauty of being autistic is in here along with the challenges of self-acceptance and self-compassion.
I struggle with these things too and found this book very validating and - well, anything that makes you go a bit easier on yourself has to be a good thing.”
The book that could be my autobiography
“It made me laugh and cry in equal measure as I recognised myself in your words.”
A healing book
“Some poems made me smile or laugh out loud with the brutal honesty and some made me cry (a lot) and there were many penny-dropping moments for me.
I could relate to nearly all of them which was very scary.... that a total stranger could un-jumble my thoughts and feelings over the years and write them down in a book.”
