Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nightime

This was a really quick, but great read. Basically it is the story of what we assume is an autistic boy who finds a dead dog and decides he needs to figure out how the dog was killed. It's really quirky and interesting and sad. It reminded me of The Pleasure of My Company by Steve Martin, which was also really great. Anyway, this book was really ironically funny and the world of an autistic boy is so well realized that you instantly believe it and are drawn in.
