Cuando en una de sus caminatas nocturnas encuentra al perro de su vecina, la señora Shears, atravesado por un horcón, Christopher inicia un viaje detectivesco para averiguar quién mató a Wellington, sin embargo, se encontrará con muchas más cosas que tan solo el asesino del perro de su vecina.
En pocas palabras, me voló la cabeza este libro. Realmente me cautivó la manera en la que el autor pudo hacernos entrar en la mente de Christopher de una forma tan bien lograda, y a la vez tan cruda, tan real.
Puedes entender porqué los personajes hacen lo que hacen, hay coherencia, hay una historia bien contada, y hay un personaje principal que te absorbe.
Eso si, creo que para mi no alcanzó a cautivarme por completo, a ratos me costaba muchísimo avanzar en la historia y se me hacía una lectura muy pesada, más que nada porque como lector en un principio no entiendes hacia dónde estamos yendo, sin embargo una vez que entiendes, no lo sueltas hasta saber qué pasará con Christopher.
Realmente lo recomiendo, creo que todos deberían leer esto, para que abramos el mundo y seamos conscientes de que, como Christopher, hay 100.000 niños más que sufren y 100.000 adultos que no los comprenden del todo.
Brillante.

Geschichte in sich: alle anderen Charaktere konnte ich zwar in ihren Handlungen nachvollziehen, sie haben mich aber sauer gemacht und ich konnte sie schlicht weg nicht leiden
Und alles in allem:
fand ich hatte das Buch leider seine Längen weshalb ich lange gebraucht hab, um durch das Buch zu kommen.
Da die Idee hinter dem Buch jedoch sehr gelungen ist, kann und möchte ich es nicht schlecht bewerten :)
Graphic: Toxic relationship, Violence, and Vomit
Moderate: Child abuse, Mental illness, and Murder
Minor: Drug abuse and Panic attacks/disorders
Die Warnungen, die ich angegeben habe sind alle im Buch enthalten, jedoch durch den Schreibstil sehr milde gehalten, weshalb ich die meisten Dinge gut aushalten konnte, auch wenn ich ein persönliches Thema mit ihnen hatte. Dies Variiert natürlich danach, wie starke Triggerpunkte diese Themen für dich sind! Das Thema vor dem ich am meisten warnen würde sind:ashielovestoread's review against another edition
