NeurodiVERSE by Janine Booth, Paul Neads, Kate Fox, Rob Steventon

challenging emotional funny informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

Full disclosure: one of my poems is in this anthology, so I'm pretty biased. But I enjoyed getting to read this! The poems included vary widely (in tone, topic, style, length, etc.), and it's nice to have a space to hear from and about neurodivergent people, despite the many other ways the authors included differ. I appreciate how the book is split into sections with little explanations for those who are less familiar with neurodivergence. My favorite poems included were "Developmental History" by Olivia Tuck and "We Are All Running Up That Hill by Kate Bush" by Freya Robinson.
