21 " She headed to the YA section, scanning the shelves for books she hadn't read before. There was a method to it: start at the top and move your way across, and then reverse back along the row to the beginning and move down to the next shelf. You had to keep your eyes skimming back and forth just in case you missed a book, and then right at the end do another quick scan to make sure nothing had escaped your attention. "

25 " She didn't say anything-no words could convey how they were all feeling- but simply held her arms wide open and shut her eyes against the impact of all of them being pulled into a group hug. The best group hug, carrying with it all the stress and toil and strife and emotion that they'd had to deal with over the past few months. Olivia knew, even though there were no words, that the others felt the relief and delight that she did. "

26 " It means I see and experience the world a bit differently from people who aren't autistic, but that's not necessarily bad- while things can sometimes feel difficult, I wouldn't change who I am for the world. It's made me who I am! "
