About

Hi, I’m TJ Hassall or Tiffany! I’m a book reviewer, LEGO enthusiast, and aspiring fantasy author. My life is a blend of storytelling, creativity, and navigating the beautiful chaos of raising a neurodivergent family.

Navigating Life with Autism and ADHD

As someone with Autism and ADHD—and a parent of neurodivergent children—books and toys are more than just hobbies for me. I’m always on the lookout for stories and products that embrace neurodivergent perspectives and provide meaningful experiences for families like mine.

Reading hasn’t always been easy due to ADHD, which is why I focus on recommending only the very best—books that earn 4 stars or higher. If I’m recommending something, you can trust it’s a story that truly resonated with me.

Rediscovering Writing

Back in 2015, I was passionate about writing, but after experiencing a traumatic attack, I struggled to pick up the pen again. For years, I associated my writing with that time in my life, creating a block I couldn’t overcome.

Recently, I’ve found my way back to writing, and I’m working on building a massive fantasy world for a series I plan to complete. Writing has become a journey of healing and creativity, and I’m excited to share glimpses of that process with you.

Falling in Love with LEGO

LEGO wasn’t a part of my childhood, but as a parent, it became a magical discovery. I started buying sets for my children, but my own love for it started to bloom when we found Dungeons & Dragons LEGO figures. After building them, I realised they needed an inn—and that’s when my husband surprised me with the LEGO Snuggly Duckling and Rapunzel Tower.

Those first builds were a turning point for me. While recovering from an illness, LEGO became a comforting, creative outlet. Since then, I’ve started building Harry Potter LEGO sets and exploring how LEGO can spark imagination and storytelling for all ages.
