Mysterious Beginning for The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
I just started in The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon, and I thought it was very interesting because it was a very mysterioous beginning. I always like to read a mysterious beginning such as this one and I thought it was very awesome just to read it. I like the way the book makes me feel, as if though I was there witnessing the whole incident or even just put myself in the main character's shoes.
One line from this part of the book that stands out for me is: "It was 7 minutes after midnight. The dog was lying on the grass in the middle of the lawn in front of Mrs. Shears's house." I think that this sentence was very mysterious and with just this sentence the suspension was already brought up. I like the way the book is written because I get a picture in mind about this incident being late in the night and seeing a dead body of a dog in someone's yard.
Another line that I find interesting: "I do not like people shouting at me. It makes me scared that they are going to hit me or touch me and I do not know what is going to happen." This stood out for me because I feel that when people install this kind of fear through their scream I can experience the same thing. First of all, I do not like it when people scream at me for no reasona and if so, they have to explain themselves. I guess I just despise screaming because it's annoying and I don't need anymore than what I get at home (sometimes).
This section The Curious Incident of The Dog In The Night-Time reminds me of something in the news. You always hear about how people get murdered and killed at the same time. I hear this in the news every day and it makes me feel like the world is not safe out there, but I just can't let this fear get the best of me because then I wouldn't be able to live my life. I think that no one should be scared of things that happen in the news, just be a little more aware of their surroundings.
What's probably going to happen next is that Christopher is going to the police station with the officer and he is going to be in a whole deal of trouble after they call his parents up. I think he might get the blames for killing the dog since all his DNA was probably on the dog after he held it.
I am looking forward to reading the rest of this book because I find it very supensful and I would like to know what's going to happen next in the book. I feel that this book is going to get better and better as I read more of it ^.^

The book that your reading,
The book that your reading, I am reading the same book too and I think it is a really good book to read and to recommend someone to read it too. It is a very mysterious book and me love those type of books and I want to find out each time about what is going to happen and stuff. What you said about people shouting at you, I don't like people yelling at me either. I get scared when they yell at me and stuff and it is like they want to kill me or something and in the book that is what happened to the dog, the dog got killed and I feel really bad for it.
I'm reading the same book as
I'm reading the same book as you and I agree with you. The is very interesting and mysterious. I like what it says and how its written. I like what is going on so far. Also the sentence that you wrote about it was 7 minutes after midnight that stood out for you, it did the same for me. This sentence stood out for me too which made me want to read more of the book. I actually think that it's a good book.
I am also reading this book.
I am also reading this book. But i don't like the book a lot. It is interesting but it gets boring sometimes. I think the writing of this book is different from other book and so is the character in this book. Christopher is a totally different 15 year old guy, he is innocent. Also I think that his father kill the dog i don't know why i think that but I just feel the his father killed the dog.
