CW: Animal cruelty and death, ableism, mental illness, violence 

I didn't enjoy this book as much as I expected to, and was put off by all the animal cruelty and killing. I tried reading the ebook initially, but the formatting of the chapter flourishes overtook half the page rendering them unreadable.  I spent some Xmas money to buy a paperback, but I'm not sure I want to buy the next one. This one just wasn't good enough.  Too bad.
