Year 9 can be tough for everyone, but for Tally it feels even tougher. Everything seems to be changing as she and her friends get older. Make-up, boys, social media, GCSE prep - why is it all starting to feel so different? Tally has always known that being autistic means some things are harder for her than they are for other people.

I own this book. Find this review on The StoryGraph.
I wanted to read this since I enjoyed the previous instalment, Do You Know Me, written by the same authors, so I headed in with high expectations once I bought it. I glanced at the blurb, which made it seem intriguing, and I started to read it not long after. When I closed the final page, the book was enjoyable.
It starts (more like continues) with Tally entering Year Eight (the British version of eighth grade) with most of her friends in the opening pages. I noted that Tally uses the term autistic, and not person with autism, so I'll go with that from there. Surprisingly, Layla leaves Tally behind to move to Florida, much to Tally's dismay, and she already said her life is harder than other neurotypicals because she's autistic, which also applies to Year Eight.
The situation looks fine at first but it quickly deteriorates as Tally finds it hard to adapt and adjust to secondary school as an autistic person, and also deal with ableism and bullying. Unfortunately, everything fell apart from there as Tally felt secondary school was too much so her parents sent her to an alternative school where she can learn without the pressures specific to being neurodivergent in a mostly neurotypical society. I liked the plot since it didn't get too convoluted with unneeded subplots and it's distinct enough that it isn't repetitive. I liked the characters, too, and at last, I could connect and relate to them, and I also predicted Tally would bounce back when everything feels overwhelming, and I was right. The pacing is enough to keep the narrative going, and the writing style is basic, but accessible (I think that's intentional, though.) I haven't read Can You See Me and Ways to Be Me, but I'll get those when I can.
