This has been on my “to read” list for a long time, and it didn’t disappoint. Christopher is a likable, and, exhausting, narrator. I really felt his confusion and terror when confronted with new environments and people. I believe that one of the great gifts that reading fiction bestows on the reader is empathy, and I think this book is a prime example. I work with a number of students who are on “the spectrum” and I feel that I now have a better understanding of some of the issues they face. All that aside, I found this book very entertaining and recommend it.
