Funny, witty, and lighthearted with a near-child’s perspective on heavy and serious situations.

This book was a delight, especially as an audiobook! Getting the perspective of someone on the autism spectrum is such a change from what I typically read, and it's certainly enlightening. Christopher is a delightful character -- funny, endearing, and above all very logical. The story told from anyone else's perspective would have been entirely bland.
