The description truly allows you to imagine everything that's going on in the story so clearly, and I can almost hear, see, and smell the scenes for myself as I read, since the description was so detailed.
Because of that, The Troop can make you feel quite queasy, and it's not something you should read before you eat, or maybe even after.
However, it's really interesting and innovative and even though I'm disturbed while reading it, I don't actually want to put it down.

I thought it was reasonably well written and it's meant to make you super uncomfortable. The boy other people are writing reviews about is a sadomasochist so his bits are especially messed up but that's what the author intended.
I was told it was like Lord of The Flies but I honestly don't think it's like that at all.

It's a messed up story, but that's exactly what I signed up for.
