I can't really say if my review is accurate since I watched the show first and keep comparing the two. It wasn’t a bad read and I’m going to read the next one in the series, but if I had never seen the show I probably wouldn’t have finished the book. The last thing I have to add is I’m not sure if it explains it in the next book but without watching the show first, Will and Hannibal’s connection is very confusing and ambiguous.
Graphic: Violence and Murder
Moderate: Gun violence and Child abuse
