"Asperger's and Girls" http://www.amazon.com/Aspergers-Girls-T ... 193256540X

It gives some very good advice about relationships, dealing with cliques, etc. and I could relate to it so much. I think its one of the most helpful books I've found so far (for me anyway)

Yes, I bought it several months ago & was pleased to see it addressed-since I'm female & dx'd. If only it were longer, though ! There needs to be a sequel that's 300 pages, not just 100.

I've always wanted to read an Asperger book on females.

There's "Women From Another Planet ?" (Jean Kearns Miller, editor), an anthology by several women dx'd w/ASD's. If you haven't come across it, perhaps it would be worth your while.
