6. I was not too sure about my own definition of it so I google it. I found this site (https://www.masterclass.com/articles/...) that says "The naif’s narrative abilities are impacted by inexperience or age. In Mark Haddon’s The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, 15-year-old Christopher weaves the tale of his supposedly deceased mother and the murder of his neighbor’s dog. Both his age and his Asperger’s syndrome color his narrative, and how he comprehends the world around him."

Good one, Esther! I would not have thought of that one.

yeah. Call me an optimist. I thought it would improve. When i got ready to give up, i realized I had a 100 page left. So I figured I may as well finish it as it was a quick read. At least I got my badge out of it.
