Beyond the Spectrum
Christian Duran

Mark Haddon did an excellent job of writing this compelling story featuring the autistic protagonist on the bumpy road to independence. A strong sense of mystery was incorporated regarding the murder of Wellington along with the ongoing adventure, struggles, and coming of age of Christopher John Francis Boone. The difficulties and experiences of living with autism spectrum disorder (Asperger's syndrome) are highlighted through Christopher's point of view. This gives the reader an interesting, uncommonly experienced perception of the world through new eyes. I strongly recommend this book to anyone looking for a unique, quick read filled with mystery and comic relief.

This book was absolutely fascinating and gave me a perspective on autism that I never had before. It was incredibly creative and cleverly written and not only is it enjoyable, but a book that everyone could benefit from reading.
Absolutely Wonderful!

This novel provides an amazing story about a young boy embarking on a new adventure that leads him to solving different type of mysteries that he faces. The main character's action displays courage, bravery, determination and hope. This allows readers to either relate to the main character or learn from the main character the strength to never give up and to always have a goal in life that you can accomplish. The novel was worth reading, the characters quest to solve the mystery of who murdered his neighbor's beloved dog touched my heart to the very core of it. Readers you will not be go wrong if you decide to read this novel, it will take you to whole new place that you have never been to before. I don't have any bad comments about this book at all. My favourite thing about this books is that fact that the main character is sharing a lot about himself with the readers, which is allowing us readers to greatly learn about him and his hobbies.

I hadn't read a book in about three months so when i picked up this one i was a bit skeptical at first. But as soon as i got reading i was drawn in and honestly could not put the book down. The book is totally different from other books (being from the perspective of an autistic child) and i think thats what makes it so good. I think Mark Haddon's book is full of imaginiation and its absolutley refreshing to read something such as this. Read it you will love it.
