Fifteen-year-old Christopher has a photographic memory. He understands maths. He understands science. What he can’t understand are other human beings.
When he finds his neighbour’s dog, Wellington, lying dead on the lawn, he decides to track down the killer and write a murder mystery about it. But in doing so, he uncovers other mysteries that threaten to bring his whole world crashing down around him.

It was okay. There wasn’t really a plot, but I liked the characters band themes.

This is an outstanding book. It teaches you about a different perspective from someone who has Asperger's Syndrome. The narrator is Christopher Boone. Christopher is only fifteen but anything that changes in his timetable makes him feel queasy. When he finds out the truth he sets out to travel to London, however, he is in Swindon. I love this book. I would recommend it for ages ten plus as there are some bad words in there. However, it is a meaningful story.

My favourite character is Christopher because he is very inquisitive, especially when Wellington the dog got killed. I recommend this for people who love mysteries and thriller books!
