This is a fantastic book and I am always recommending it to various people. My three kids all read it when they were teens or even before and they all loved it too. Weren't the prime number chapters a great touch? I read this a few years ago and have always meant to try another of his books but haven't got there. Has anyone read "A Spot of Bother" or anything else by him? -- LOL Reading Recommendation Board

My friend is reading "A Spot of Bother" and enjoying it. I love the prime number chapters and the description of how Christopher processes things-really a terrific book. (NT) -- Keira, 17:47:42 06/15/11 Wed
- Yes it really is. Keira I'd love to hear the final verdict when your friend has finished ASOB. Tell Her / him to post! (NT) -- Rhiann, 18:20:03 06/15/11 Wed
  - A Spot of Bother was an absolute delight. The protagonist thinks he is going insane, and he had me rolling on the floor as often as not. Just as good as Dog if not better, but totally different. Haddon does not write formulaic things at all. (NT) -- Susannah, 06:14:19 06/16/11 Thu
    - Thanks. Another on the list!! (NT) -- Rhiann, 06:44:08 06/16/11 Thu
