hello everyone, my bf who identifies as an aspie is starting to looking into aspergers.

he wants to look at the books that i have ('The Asperger Love Guide' (Edmonds, Worton) and 'Love on the NHS' (Formby),

but i'm sure you all can suggest some cool books that he can read to better understand himself...

and go...! :)

The best I have ever come across is "The Rosie Project" by Graeme Simsion. Beautiful, empathetic and detailed portrayal of a man on the spectrum who discovers he is on it (eventually), great for spreading awareness in both NT and ASD reader populations.
