The curious incident of the dog in the night-time

[Deschain]

I've started last night, but just a few pages

It's a bit curious how the book is written, but I think I'll like it.

I've just read how the main character found the murdered dog and after being questioned by the policeman he hit him, so he was arrested

I'll continue tonight, be patient felicity, we are a bit slow

I was able to start reading the book last night and I have read about 25% of it. It's a really easy reading, as the main character and narrator uses a very simple language without any metaphors

I was surprised of how much out of date the book has become since I read it for the first time, several years ago. At that time, Asperger syndrome was very little known and I really appreciated all the explanations about it given in the book. Since then we have had Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, The Big Bang Theory and other works starring similar characters: and you cannot help getting a bit of a dejà-vu feeling when reading about Christopher.

Anyway, it's a great book and a real page-turner. I'm enjoying it a lot, despite everything.

[LizzyDarcy]

I really enjoy reading this book, despite I didn't have too much time for reading.

I'm in chapter 149 (so funny the numbers of the chapters), it's 40% of the book.

I don't know if Christopher could find out who mudered Wellington, but in his investigations he has just found out that his mother and Mr. Sear had an affair before she died But he doesn't matter, but his father gets so angry because he talks to Mrs. Alexander.

The most I like are the conversations between Christopher and Siobahn.

I'm reading it. I started this weekend but I've read only 14% of the book. I didn't remember the chapters of prime numbers. I find the language easy to understant and interesting despite I've read very little.

I Have Had to Work this weekend, and Finish a book I was reading. So after that I come back to this one, Once you are starting comment it

[Carmen Neke]

People who haven't read The Hound of the Baskervilles should skip chapter 107 altogether, as it is a huge spoiler of the book!

[Felicity]

True!

I Have Red many time away so has been great to remember it

Right, some clues on the 50% red.

Did you feel that this guy, Chris is under the age he supously is ? He is 15th but not seems more than 12 Years Old, really.

When he is talking about the children with special need and the school... he seems that he is one of those.

Another thing just realized that Shioban is

His teacher I tought was a colleague.

Don't understand the Father... it's evil

How can make Chris thinking, his mother is dead when she is not? poor guy when he has discovered the letters of mum, and he fell of in a sort of "catharsis" And the Dad just perpare him a bath and say "sorry" you didn't have to find it

I Just realize that English people es more than strange, because trust me. They aboslutely are. Not empathy, everyone in his bussines and not very emotional.

I like the "extra" on the books, like the maps and the graphics...

And Also the narrative is like the book of "Anabel Pi" "My Sister is living..." And the stories have some similarities

Will continue reading

I'm going in the same part of the book as Felicity, chapter 167, 53%.

I'm as

poor Christopher, he has realized that his mum is not dead. She went away with Roger (Mr. Sear) and she tried to come back to say goodbye, but his father didn't let her come. She also wrote more than 40 letters, but he didn't give it to Christopher. And now he found it. So he is completely shocked.

People who haven't read The Hound of the Baskervilles should skip chapter 107 altogether, as it is a huge spoiler of the book!

I read it so long ago so for me was good because I forgot everything, I remembered the things while I was reading chapter 107.

Did you feel that this guy, Chris is under the age he supously is ? He is 15th but not seems more than 12 Years Old, really.

When he is talking about the children with special need and the school... he seems that he is one of those.

Yes, this is because the asperger syndrome.

And I surprised too about Siobhan,

I thought she is a school partner, and she is a teacher.

[evadina]

I just LOVE this book!
So easy to read and so plainly explained Christopher's Asperger so that readers can get to know what it is about...

[Larús]

We're reading it just now in a MC, evadina, if you want to re-read it and join us

[Felicity]

Have missed this point, about Christopher.

I'm still in shock. Really?

So, has been the father who killed the dog, because when his Wife just escape with Mr Shearn; Mrs Shearn would help them but at least she wouldn`t move because her Dog.

Every time is more complicated.

But make you interested to continue reading.

I have liked the Conceptual map, what he's doing about what to do next

So he has decided to

Go London With Mom

Will see..

Hello!!
I've just seen that you're reading this book!
Hello, Ayrween!!

I have the English version and I'm going to read it soon. Are you enjoying it?
See you

[Ayrween]

Hi, Ororo! Join us!

Yes, I'm enjoying it. I've read 21%. Not many time for reading and I'm a bit slow reading in English.

[Carmen Neke]

About to start chapter 181.

I really pity the father. He's just a simple working-class man, burdened with a very difficult son whom he loves a lot but has to bring up on his own. He does as good as he can but it's not surprising he makes mistakes. And he doesn't complain about being lonely or not having anyone to talk to.

On the other hand, I find the mother a real bitch. She couldn't manage having such a son so she just ran away with another man to have a better life. But she's still sending letters to her son, knowing he cannot understand the situation, only not to feel so bad about abandoning him.
