The Beast: Riding the Rails and Dodging Narcos on the Migrant Trail by Óscar Martínez

dark emotional medium-paced

3.0

Informative, but it read like the narration of one of those gritty exploitative documentaries that I try to avoid. Also, it was very repetitive, and I feel that it could have been written differently or been 75 pages shorter.
