A review by mothiver
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon

Did not finish book.
as an Autistic person, I found the main character a pretty inaccurate representation of Autistic thinking and behaviour. upon looking it up, I then discovered the author saying he had done absolutely no research. really worries me that schools assign this to kids claiming it’ll help them understand Autism better… if anything, it’ll only give false impressions. 
(also, kinda weird how the protagonist
worrying about being hurt by a guy who just murdered a dog
is presented as illogical? maybe I’m misreading it)
