We have just read the book The Curious Incident of the dog at Night-Time. Overall I would say that the book was pretty good but it was very boring and dragged on in some parts. This book is about a young man names Christopher. Christopher has aspergers and has difficulty interacting with the people around him. His father has made him believe that his mother is dead but really he has been lying to him and hiding letters that his mother has been sending to him for over a year. His mother really left his father for their neighbor Mr. Shears and has moved to London. Christopher finds this out and realizes that the only way to feel safe is to go to London and find his mother.
If I had to rate this book on a scale of 1-10 I would rate this an 8 because the story is good and has a good underlining meaning but it was very boring to read and strange at times because you are seeing from the eyes of a young man with a disorder. Also, some of the other characters are strange. Such as Mr. Shears, you never know his first name and I find this weird and odd. Overall this was a good book but I would only recommend it to someone who doesn't mind not a lot of action in the stories they hear because this book has none of it.
