This book was disturbing, but rather engaging. Told through the amazing accident prone boy and the doctor who cares for him after he is in a coma, a mystery is unraveled. I thought the idea for this book was really original.

Odd mystery with characters that I didn't really warm up to. It was interesting, but I'm not sure that I recommend it. I'm not even sure if I liked it. That probably doesn't help you much does it?
I read that they are going to make a movie based on this that will be directed by the guy who did The English Patient. Hmm, that fits. In a weird, boring but good way.

A very strange story, one of the oddest I ever read really. But I guess good in its own way.

Similar to Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night... very interesting, and a little bizarre...
