i found the characterisation of Christopher offensive as someone who is neurodivergent. Asperger Syndrome is not "real", it was made up by a Nazi scientist to determine which autistic people could be useful and which ones to send to their deaths. The author is ableist and clearly consulted with Autism Speaks, a horrifically evil organisation that makes bank off promoting conversion therapy, dehumanising and abusing autistic people. Even worse, when he got backlash he claimed Christopher isn't autistic just "quirky". He's clearly portrayed as a stereotypical autistic person.
