Has anyone read it? I'm almost done. Nice story about a mute boy who believes his father's death wasn't an accident. His family breeds and trains their own breed of dogs. Never knew it was such a big job. I'm at the part where he is on the lam because,... well, don't want to spoil it for anyone else.

Success is measured not by the position one reaches but by the obstacles one has to overcome to reach it. Booker T. Washington

I have been reading it off and on for awhile. Not done yet. I like it. The reason I don't finish it is I keep stopping to read the neighborhood book club pick. But, I pick it back up and read more.

I wanted to like this book but just didnt. I read it all but there was just something about it. I found it really hard to keep my interest. Practically had to force myself to finish it. There were somethings I just didnt get and that were never explained. I like a good "mystery" in a book but at some point the reader should understand what is going on and I never felt like I really did.

Finished it yesterday,...and well, I don't like how it ends. But won't say more in case anyone else wants to read it.

I couldn't finish just did not hold my attention.
