This was an overwhelming reading experience from start to finish. A trying too hard to be quirky cast of characters, overly purple prose, and a climax of plot centered around every kind of abuse imaginable. I kept expecting all the characters to intersect and the plot to count together and it never did. The more I read, the more disappointed I became.
This lacked any sort of the depth it was obviously trying to have.
If you’re squeamish about animal abuse at all, stay far far FAR away from this. I regret reading it.

Loved this book. Stunning prose with a variety of threads that all came together. I can’t believe it was a debut.
