Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Kay

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Timeby Mark Haddon is a great bokk about a teen namede Christopher that has a mental disability. The book is 'written' by Christopher. He starts out investigating the murder of his neighbor's dog, Wellington when he is spun into a whole other mystery. He finds a box of letters in his fathers closet that turn his world upside down. I won't give it away.
I really loved the writing style from Christopher's point of view, it made you look at somethings differently, I'll never look at a yellow car in the same way again! There was a lot of humor in the book but it also was sad at times. i would recommend this book to people who like realistic fiction books, it is kind of like A corner of the Universe, but more developed and for an older reading level. Beware: swearing.
