This recent release was the “Non-fiction November” pick for the Chronically Iconic Book Club.

Alice Wong is the founder and director of the Disability Visibility Project, and the editor of the anthology Disability Visibility. This unique memoir about her life and activism includes interview transcripts, previously published work, essays, photos, and more.

This memoir started off strong and the author shares some very powerful messages about disability and ableism in our culture. Unfortunately, as it went on it became very repetitive and I found some of the interview transcripts to be a bit boring. Ultimately, I struggled to finish it and feel like if it had been shorter with less repetition, it would have created more of an impact.
