Prior to reading I did see reviews where they said listening to this book gave your a different experience and I 100% agree. It is in the style of a podcast, where there is interviews coming in and out of narration from the host. I did opt to simple read the book but I do think that if you have the opportunity to do so, listening would be a much better experience.
In saying that the book was still very enjoyable. It had a lot more darker themes then I was expecting.
Minor: Sexual violence

The novel really started picking up about a third of the way through for me and I finished the second half of the book in one sitting. This story felt like a ball of snow rolling down a hill, picking up more and more with sticks and rocks and dirt and building and building until it reaches the bottom and all breaks apart again. The scenes get more intense and the characters start unraveling and it was just such an amazing way to put a book together.
The ending was also super super interesting.
