Abandoning this book because the kid narrator really makes me want to slap him in the face. Maybe it's because he reminds me a bit of myself when I was younger.

It was really the chapter about the revelation of who killed the dog and their casual dismissal and uncaringness (which I won't mention due to the spoiler) that made me angry enough to abandon this book. Maybe the last half is good but I don't think I'll come back to it unless I'm really bored or someone convinces me otherwise.
