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

3.0

I appreciate what this book is doing in terms of autism representation (an autistic acquaintance of mine said that this was the best representation they've ever found).

But to call this book a murder mystery or a quest of investigation (as the blurb does) is misleading. It's a literary fiction book about strained family relationships. There's also a dog's death, which gets briefly looked into, but that's really not the focus or the point.
