I read this book in one day, it was kind of sweet and sad and good but not so much that i felt very emotional or invested in the characters. Overall, i did enjoy reading the book (or i wouldn't have gotten through it that fast), but i do not think it moved me in a way other books did that i read recently.
After what seems ages I've finally managed to finish a book again. And I was quite sure that I'll finish this because 'The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time' is one of my favorites. So I started this book with quite high expectations, and even though I liked again Haddon's easy-going writing style and that he manages to make everyday life something special as well as to combine sad and funny moments to a perfect mix, I have to say that I'm a little bit disappointed by the story itself. Still, it was a very good read for the evenings and a lazy Sunday, something I could just go on with that didn't need a lot of cognitive capacity ;)
