Also I need to care for the characters… I didn’t care for any of them… which just made me annoyed and angry.

Disappointing…. I need twist and turns and surprises in my stories. I guessed everything… and that’s disappointing to me. Also I need to care for the characters… I didn’t care for any of them… which just made me annoyed and angry.jackalopecore's review against another edition

It was very well-written and the concept was good, but there was too much detail. I learned too much about some of these characters, especially Shelley.
Overall, it was well-written and I genuinely enjoyed Max, Ephraim, and Newt. I don't think Kent's character was fleshed out enough for me to care about him. His father's character made more of an impact. I am not a religious person by any means, but I do think the author may benefit from Jesus and some therapy. In fact, I need therapy after reading this. My appointment is scheduled for three weeks from now. I'm not hopeful that I'll make it until then with this content wiggling around inside of my head.

Truly cannot overemphasize how gross/yucky/icky the body horror in this book is. Expect vivid descriptions of extremely unpleasant bodily functions and experiences, for both humans and animals. I love things that make me squeamish but even I won't soon forget some of the imagery in this book.whatathymeitwas's review against another edition
