Great list! Have you read "Radio Silence" by Alice Oseman? It's not stated in the book, but I think the entire novel is a beautiful portrayal of the power and value of Autistic friendships (pretty sure the two main characters are both in club 'tism!).
Loved this list, Aisling. Moira Fowley's book has been circling my consciousness for months but you've convinced me to pick it up. I also wanted to recommend Naoise Dolan's The Happy Couple. I read it on a heavy day and it really lifted me. It was so engrossing I burnt the dinner, which not many books can do! Happy reading :)
Thank you so much for this list! especially All The Little Bird-Hearts - I’m trying to publish my own novel with an autistic lead character and am delighted to find another one by an actual autist! Have ordered them all for my Christmas holiday reading 😃

I haven’t read any of the titles on your list (yet!). Thank you for sharing these recommendations 💛
