Funny, You Don't Look Autistic

This was a neat memoir (if that's still the right word to use for a young adult??) of a comedian/performer/person with autism. If you are curious about the spectrum and are looking for a good point of entry into learning more, this book would be a good place to start. This would be especially appropriate for a teen who is looking to understand this world. Mostly autobiography with some education thrown in. And of course it's always fascinating to just read what life is like for someone whose brain is wired differently from mine.

If you're interested in a slightly deeper (but still super interesting and well written) book about ASD, I always recommend Neurotribes.
