I liked and enjoyed this book, HOWEVER the last 30% of the book feels like you're reading an 800 page novel.
This was out of my comfort zone and I am happy I read it.

The way Dean writes about motherhood, trauma, and dilemma fascinates me. The concept alone is unlike anything I’ve gotten the chance to read, and I really love how devastatingly bittersweet and complex it is. I’d say that a lot of elements of the world of the book eaters resembles Handmaid’s tale, ifykyk.
