Ways to Be Me

This book is great for people who have autism because even if you have autism it doesn't mean you aren't normal or nice .

The story takes place as Tally is about to transition to secondary school—a daunting change for any child, but especially challenging for someone with autism. Tally’s life is filled with routines that help her feel safe, but her world often feels chaotic when those routines are disrupted. She struggles with sensory overload, social interactions, and a general feeling of being different from her peers. However, Tally also possesses a keen sense of observation, a deep love of animals, and a fierce desire to be accepted for who she is. What sets Ways to Be Me apart is the raw honesty in the portrayal of Tally’s experiences. I got a first-hand look at the frustrations, fears, and joys that come with being neurodivergent in a world that often doesn’t understand or accommodate those differences. Through Tally’s perspective, the novel explores themes of identity, acceptance, and the importance of empathy.

This book is a true book that I read for hours on end. The 3rd book by Libby Scott and Rebecca Westcott it is incredible and moving.

It was good, but I wasn't overly impressed with it like I am with most books. It's brilliant for understanding autistic people, but like most books like these, the only reason Tally is in this book is because she finds out she's autistic. There is hardly a side character that is autistic in books which is quite unfair.

I would maybe not recommend it to my friends because this book is kind of my personal favorite because I'm autistic and I don't like sharing what I read.

This book is very deep as Tally gets diagnosed with Autism and goes through challenges but I liked it.

Princess Rose Squirrel 28.08.2022

I rate this book a 4 because it is very nice and spreads awareness but it lost a star because it could have been a bit more fun. My favourite character is Tally’s (Natalia’s) best friend as she helps Tally when things are difficult. I would recommend it to anyone who likes family books or just wants to have a lovely, calm read.

This was a great book. It helped you understand what life might be like for an autistic person. My favourite character was Ginny.

Mademoiselle Esmerelda Shortbread 12.08.2021

A good, fun, easy to read book which gives you a good insight into the life of an autistic person. My favourite character was Miles or Tally. I would recommend.
