I thoroughly enjoyed Mark Haddon's other two books that I've read, both A Spot of Bother and The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime had me captivated right from the start. This book, however, was difficult to follow and didn't have the same element of storytelling that the other two did. This one is told from the perspective of 8 different family members and is very hard to follow. Their thoughts are incomplete and scattered. It may be how people actually think and even speak, but reading that is quite difficult when trying to follow a story.
