Hazard: A Sister's Flight from Family and a Broken Boy

3.5 stars
I'm fascinated with autism and have empathy for anyone affected by it. I appreciated the author's perspective, especially growing up in the era that she did. It is hard to imagine having a child/sibling with a disability in a time when so little information was understood.
The first half of the book was my favorite because of the perspective it revealed. It was much harder for me to relate to the author through her adult years, making it a slightly more frustrating section to read. However, the book as a whole is an insightful, worthwhile read. I would recommend this book to anyone affected by or interested in autism.
*I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
