- Loveable characters? It's complicated
3.5
The language in this book is not very accessible. I found myself looking up words constantly and it distracted from the story. However, it is a unique narrative. I’d recommend it as long as you are okay with plenty of gore.
Graphic: Body horror, Child death, Death, Gore, Murder, and Injury/Injury detail
