    Haven't posted for a long time but looking for some help for a friend.

    I'm looking for resources (books/websites/etc) dealing with teen girls and autism (ie what formerly would have been labeled as Asperger's).

    Welcome back, chay.
    You ask a great question, and fortunately there is a lot of rather new books and articles available.
    Here are a few to help your friend get started:

    The website A mighty GIRL has a post with A Different Way of Thinking: 30 Books About Autistic Mighty Girls

    An interesting reading list of Books About Autism in Women (My 2021 Reading List)[/color][/i].

    The amazon page for this book,Women and Girls with Autism Spectrum Disorder: [color:#999999][i]Understanding Life Experiences from Early Childhood to Old Age, has other links to follow.

    This review of the book, I Can Fix It!, has other links to follow.
