I've been itching to read this book
for months. But when I finally received
it for my birthday and read it, I was
disappointed. An autistic narrator
did not seem to always make an engaging
narrator. In addition, the adult topics
the childlike narrator was confronting
were jarring to the innocent tone of the
book. In some ways, my reaction to this
book is similar to my feelings about
most graphic novels; the adult situations
and conflicts feel inappropriate in what
should be a protected environment.
