If you have autistic relatives for the love of GOD don’t invite them to a family only thing and then drop extra guests on them and make THEM feel like an asshole if they don’t want to come anymore. You’ve fundamentally changed the thing you’ve invited them to.

Hi Simon
I'd like to #buyastrangerabook for the New Year. Something they've been meaning to read but haven't got around to yet, whether it's a well-known classic, a cult obscurity or just that one their mate keeps banging on about.
