Devolution: A Firsthand Account of the Rainier Sasquatch Massacre by Max Brooks
2.0
The story felt rushed. The characters were one dimensional and just stereotypes.
One character knows everything there is to know and exactly what to do all the time
One character serves as the foil to this person, constantly just saying the opposite of what the first character says.
Typical "oh we're falling out of love but real adversity brings us together" character.
The main character is Mary Sue for the reader's self insert
Then the child which of course serves as a major plot point for bravery at some point
The diary style was kind of jarring because it just didn't really work in this. Why was the main character writing a journal in the middle of so much chaos?
It was an easy enough read and short, so that's fine, but I was disappointed
