“I love the sense of “crip community” threaded through this book, and the insightful and frank exploration of growing up disabled, with thoughtful political commentary neatly interwoven. Living a disabled life in an ableist world is engagingly described with grace, humour and passion, mercifully free from inspiration porn. I finished reading wanting more.” - Robyn Hunt
