Nine Minds is a collection of short stories following nine individuals as they recount their experiences as autistic humans in this world. As an autistic adult myself, this was such a profound introspective piece of work. I can see parts of myself in every one of the individuals and it made me feel less alone in the world knowing there are so many more autistic people out there. I feel like the key point made in this book is that there is no one flavor of autism and just because you are able to have higher functioning than others doesn't make your experience any more invalid. I read this basically in one sitting, I felt so connected and enthralled by the individuals' recollections. I really enjoyed this book and will be recommending this to my family. 5/5 stars.

Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with an ARC of this book. All opinions expressed are my own.

This book seemed really interresting but sadly, I didn't finish it because I tought the stories were boring. I stopped halfway trought.

I thought the concept of the book was great, focusing heavily on how the autism spectrum includes many notable intelligent people, with certain social differences and sensory issues. However, the stories told about each person were very boring, although the people were somewhat interesting. I struggled through this one.
