Easily digestible informational and advice presented in a very human and relatable way. Second listening highlighted tidbits I'd missed the first time. I suspect I'll refer back again for a refresher in the future.

As a forty something fuck up myself I found Nell so easy to relate to. Beautifully written, the story had me laughing, crying and musing from start to finish. Long live the forty something fuck up.

I'm a firm believer in holistic treatment of animals and their husbandry and this lovely memoir reinforced that. Animals are so much more complex the we understand and are often much better off when we interfere as little as possible.

I laughed, I cried, I willed, I related on the most personal level. This wonderful story, beautifully narrated packed a punch I was ill prepared for, I should have paid more heed to the hype which was for once well deserved.

I was really looking forward to listening to this book as a 40 something single mum of AS children currently undergoing assessment myself. There is some useful information and some references I found useful however, overall, I was underwhelmed. The majority of the book is very narrow in focus with Aspergers traits being the main topic which I found frustrating as it is such a broad spectrum. The stop/start nature of the reading with constant insertion of references was also extremely frustrating. Surely, as with so many audio books, the references could have been organised together in an attached PDF. Some chapters felt more reference list than writing.

As a fan of Terry Pratchett for almost 40 years I was nervous of reading his story in someone else's words, I needn't have been. Rob has done a wonderful job of bring this book together and at no point did I feel anything about him or the story he was telling was insincere or contrived. I laughed, inspired to think and then cried and will definitely be listening to it again.

Some good suggestions but nothing new and very repetitive. It could have been a lot shorter.

Absolutely wonderful book full of insightful wisdom and grounded humour. I've listened through three times so fair and have taken something new from it each time.
