Award-Winning Memoir – 2013 Reader's Favorite International Book Award Winner

Jeannie was the weird kid.

The one who couldn't sit still. Who said the wrong thing at the wrong time. Who felt everything too much—sounds, lights, textures, emotions—but couldn't explain why the world felt like it was constantly screaming at her.

She excelled in school but failed at friendships. She desperately wanted to fit in but had no idea how. Teachers called her gifted. Classmates called her strange. She just wanted someone to understand.

For 38 years, Jeannie lived in a world that didn't make sense—until the day she discovered she had Asperger's Syndrome.

Suddenly, everything clicked.

Twirling Naked in the Streets and No One Noticed is the raw, unflinching memoir of a woman who spent nearly four decades trying to decode a world that wasn't built for her brain. From childhood meltdowns to adult burnout, Jeannie takes you inside the mind of someone living with undiagnosed autism—and shows you what it's like to finally, finally be seen.

Perfect for:

• Parents seeking to understand their autistic child
• Autistic adults who've felt misunderstood their entire lives
• Anyone who's ever felt like they don't quite fit
