Chronically Spoonless
Let’s say this is me collecting spoons, aka: a list of memoirs by fellow chronically ill spoonies. May the selection give you empathy or make you feel seen ❤️
Nothing About Us Without Us: Non Fiction
A collection of books by a range of disabled authors exploring what it means to navigate a world that isn’t built with accessibility in mind. Personal stories with sharp insight, these works challenge what we think we know about disability, chronic illness, mental health, neurodiversity, the myth of recovery, and what it means to belong.
List is a work in progress!
