The book I’ve just read is The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, It’s a bestselling novel written by Mark Haddon.

It tells the story of Christopher Boone, a 15-year-old boy who has behavioral difficulties because of Asperger syndrome. He has unusual mental abilities and he is a lot smarter than the other kids. He also has no empathy for other people. He lives with his father, her mother died, or that’s what his father says. Christopher is obsessed with Maths and he will be taking his A levels this year.

The book talks about a murdered dog in a backyard and how Christopher solves the case turning himself into a detective. His father is not really happy about that and tries to stop him. Christopher’s best friend is a rat who will be with him the whole story. Christopher will discover more than he expected.

I don’t want to spoil the book so I’ll finish here. I would really recommend this book to those who like mystery stories.
