Books are included if they are about or have a minimum of one chapter related to autism, or have autistic main characters. Each book has at least one autistic author or contributor. Some books are written by both autistic and non-autistic people, therefore not all authors will be autistic.

Note: These are the books I am aware of that have been published in November 2025. I have not read every book and inclusion is not endorsement.

Know of a book I've missed? Add it below!

Relatable! Looking at your books, it looks like it was a different Liz! Do you have any autistic characters in your books? If so I can add them to the website, otherwise I can add you to the author list if you like.

Sorry to hear you've been unwell!

Two of the PoV characters in my new book Song of Spores are autistic, but the terminology in-universe is different.
