3.7⭐️ cute book, reminds me that I can’t do math tho :,)

Christopher gets how there is so much going on in the world at any given point of time that it is draining to have a conscious mind. But you focus on one event after the other, and somehow things fall into place. Very endearing yet painful.

I feel like this book was a little unfair to the dad

Brutal read, there was just something about this that did not work for me.

Extremely engaging and well written, I could not put it down - finished in an afternoon. The characters all feel very realistic and natural, all have their flaws. Christopher's perspective is interesting to read and definitely relatable. The story is tragic and heartbreaking and honest - this is a book that will make you feel things. I think this book could be worth reading for everyone.

Listening to the audio book in the car is like going on a road trip with a 12 year old boy who is autistic.

Like many people, I appreciate this book for its insight into the mind of those who are autistic.

As for being a “murder mystery novel” I would say that is a stretch since the murder is solved halfway through the book.
