The curious incident of the dog in the nighttime

Mark Haddon

(Book group book)

This book focuses on a boy named Christopher who has autism. One of his neighbors dogs is murdered and he finds the dog and decides to find out who did it. He decides to go and talk to some of his neighbors about the dog but instead of hearing about the dog, he finds a lot of things out about himself and his family. Because of his autism, Christopher doesn’t see everything we see but he also notices thing we wouldn’t see. He sees the world in a completely different way. One of the most noticeable things is that he seems to have a large lack of emotion, when he is talking about his mom dying he doesn’t feel sad, not because he didn`t love her but just because he doesn’t understand or feel much emotion.

This graphic novel is about a girl named Raina who knocks out her two front teeth in 6th grade but she has some complications so that she had to basically rearrange her whole mouth with years of braces, fake teeth and a whole lot of drama. This book focuses on not only her dental drama but also friend, boy and family drama. there is also an other book called sisters that focuses on Raina. I actually Love this book and recommend it to anyone.

Lost at sea
by Bryan Lee O Malley 

This graphic novel is about a confused 18 year old girl who lost her soul and is searching for it. she comes to the conclusion that her mother sold and the souls of her two sisters who had been turned in to cats... she thinks. as she finds these things out, she is going on a road trip with some new friends.

This book was really short and it really did not have a very clear middle and end. I did not really like this book but it did only take me like an hour to read.
