..it is sort of being silly. But in life you have to take lots of decisions and if you don’t take decisions you would never do anything because you would spend all your time choosing between things you could do. So it is good to have a reason why you hate some things and you like others. It is like being in a restaurant like when father takes me out to a Berni Inn sometimes and you look at the menu and you have to choose what are you going to have. But you don’t know if you are going to like something because you haven’t tasted it yet, so you have favorite foods and you choose these, and you have foods you don’t like and you don’t choose these, and then it is simple.
i don’t normally read a book second time, but that happens when 1) i like the book very much and i almost forget the story and i wanted to remember what it is like, or 2) when i ran out of new books nearby, or 3) when i’m saving other nice books for some other nice moments. at the moment, it’s reason 1) and 3), because reason 2) and 3) can’t happen at the same time right? you can’t ran out of books and then save nice books for future reading at the same instance. what am i talking about here, non-sense inanity. haha.
this is another light read by mark haddon. the curious incident of the dog in the night-time is narrated by a 15-year old boy with autism. a math genius, he lives on patterns, rules, and then one day, his neighbor’s dog, wellington was killed with a garden fork. this deeply saddened him, but also provoked him to carry on investigation ala sherlock holmes style. hence, this is a murder story. his idealism, and perception of things entirely literally brings the humor out of the book, and at the end, he discovered something complicated, family disputes and things that are far beyond what his simple mind could seep in.
