„His mother was crushed to death when he was seven. His beloved dog died of confusion a few months later. What more reason for disturbed behavior did any doctor need?“ Eine außergewöhnliche und berührende Vater-Sohn-Geschichte - ein Lese-Highlight!
I don't knoooooow. I want to give this a better rating because I haven't read a lot of books that talk about similar topics but at the same time I can't really justify a better rating. I found it very interesting to read about Robin and his behavioral patterns as well as his conviction and passion for animals. This is something I think a lot about - how I would've reacted and how it would've influenced me as a child if I hadn't suppressed the knowledge of how horrible we treat animals. What I didn't enjoy and often only skimmed or skipped were the parts about the different planets. Don't get me wrong - I love SciFi and I'm very interested in planets and astronomy and space and other life forms. But in the way the author talked about them, I felt stupid and I didn't understand at first if these planets were supposed to be real or what the matter was with them. I started to feel very bored about those parts when I realized that it didn't lead to anything (aka that the author hadn't intended the dicovering of life on other planets to be a real possibility in the book) . And the ending? I don't know. Not gonna spoil anything of course, but I felt like the author chose the easiest way to end the book. It wasn't a horrible ending and it make some sense but it wasn't what I had expected and like i said, felt like an easy solution for a problem the author didn't want to make effort to solve. I was surprised and it felt rushed and very abruptly.
