Rating:	★★★★
Category:	Books
Genre:	Literature & Fiction
Author:	Mark Haddon

Simply put, this book is the among the most interesting and different piece of work i've read. It's written from the perspective of an autistic 15-yr old Christopher Boone who seeks to solve the mystery of who drove a garden fork though his neighbour's dog.

I was brought into the psyche of an autistic teenager, and see the surroundings thorough his eyes. it's truly fascinating and intriguing how an autistic person thinks - so literal, logical and factual. i wonder how parents of autistic kids feel about their kids not being able to bond and connect emotionally with them. While reading I was thinking, there is nothing wrong with autistic kids per se; they are just different in the way they see and do things, and how they process information - somewhat robotic.

good one. go read.
