The book which I have just began reading today, known as "the mysterious case of the upside down dog in the nighttime, is a fantastic book about a child with Asperger's syndrome, and accusations that he killed a dog, and his work to try to find out about his deceased mother.
I feel myself starting to push away at the point where his mother never picked him up after school and we found out that she died...
It was so hard for me to think about how he would deal with her death.
SPOILERS *Also, we are begining to find out that his mother is alive, his father wanted to hide the fact that his mother had left so he said that she was dead. she had constantly wrote letters to him telling her she loved him - letters that never got there due to his father. At this point, I felt so disgusted the mother could leave, and the father would do something like that*
just the whole situation was so horrible that I had to pull away, this might have been because of the fact that if I was in that position, I'm not sure what I would have done...
