Review: Different - in a totally good way

I discovered the witching world of Debora Geary a few months ago and have now read everything except her newest, "A Celtic Witch.". I love the depth of characters, the ebb and flow of who is important to each story line from book to book, and would recommend all of them to everyone even only slightly interested in fantasy writing. So - what makes "A Different Witch" so different?  It includes as a main character someone so many people in our everyday reality find different and odd - and therefore a bit scary - someone with Asperger's Syndrome and/or autistic tendencies.  Her portrayal is spot-on, and allowed me to understand my students better (I am a pianist with one autistic student and one As pie).  This book is truly a gift.  I love them all - started out borrowing them through my Prime membership (thanks, Debora and amazon) - and am buying them to have and decode as often as I want.  This particular installment is just that much better, a diamond among gems, for allowing us a glimpse into the world of human otherness all around us - witches in their own ways.  Enjoy and blessed be.
