Strong Female Character is an inspiring and empowering read that celebrates the strength of neurodiversity and the power of female voices. Fern Brady's memoir is an important and timely account of neurodivergence, sexism and survival which makes it the perfect addition to any queer book lover. Brady takes a sledgehammer to the Manic Pixie Dream Girl trope which is often mistakenly applied to neurodiverse women and looks at how her lack of regard for social expectations ultimately meant she surpassed any limitations of what a Scottish working-class woman can do.
A raw and powerful story that will leave readers feeling inspired and ready to challenge the status quo
