Number 2: This is a literal audiobook. Clear in its language, easy to understand and accessible.

Tenuous fourth reason: It looks great on a front cover.

Illustrator and content creator Ella Willis was 22 when they were formally diagnosed with autism but this was no surprise. Growing up they felt like they’d surely been dropped on earth by aliens and would eventually be rescued. Social blunders, overstimulation, intense joyful special interests: with the label of autism, these experiences made so much more sense.

In Literally, Ella is here to help you navigate all parts of being autistic, destigmatize neurodivergence and offer accessible, practical and hopeful advice. From getting a diagnosis to self-diagnosis, stimming to masking, navigating relationships to sensory issues, Ella uses their personal story, research, and interviews to provide a clear-eyed view of the autistic experience to help you thrive.

Features an audio exclusive Q&A segment with fellow content creators and friends about their experiences of being autistic.
