The Books for the Brilliantly Different
A deep dive into ADHD
Like so many others, I grew up feeling different, overwhelmed, and often broken without understanding why. When I was finally diagnosed with ADHD at 34, everything clicked but no one talks about what comes next. The grief. The relief. The total identity shift. I wrote That Makes Sense to tell the truth I couldn’t find anywhere else, for the people still searching for themselves in a world that misreads them.
I didn’t write this book because I had the answers, I wrote it because, for most of my life, I didn’t even know the right questions to ask.
Now It All Makes Sense
“Now It All Makes Sense” is my raw, unfiltered story and maybe yours too. It’s about being misunderstood, diagnosed late, and finally making sense of a brain that never played by the rules. If you’ve ever felt like you don’t belong, this book is your permission slip. Brave, relatable, and radically honest, just like its author.
'One of the most complete and moving accounts I've ever read... On behalf of all of us who grope toward understanding, thank you, Mr Partridge; thank you, thank you, thank you.'

Alex is rich, successful and an entertaining and concise communicator. Alex is also very ADHD. You want to read this book for all these reasons. It helps that it is short.
