This novel was thought provoking, disturbing and made me slightly nauseous at times. I didn't know exactly what I went into when picking it up but I am glad I read it. It is a scathing criticism of the meat industry and the commercial industry as well wrapped up in characters I ended up connecting with.
I would recommend reading the trigger warnings as after the halfway point it becomes difficult at times to read.
