A truly disgusting read. I would have finished this sooner, but I kept getting itchy reading it. Fantastically written, but a tough read if

you're bothered by parasites/bugs.

like a really f-ed up Stand By Me. full of gore and guts and things that hurt my stomach (no pun intended). I loved the ending, but I thought it could go without the animal parts

Had to skip a few pages because of the animal cruelty. This book is not for the weak. I won’t forget this book

TW: animal cruelty and animal testing


I truthfully tried to push through this book. But between some of the comments from the teenage boys and the actions of one specific boy, I couldn't continue reading after Chapter 27. As someone that loves animals, reading the descriptions written, made me so sick to my stomach, I had to forfeit continuing and leave this book as a dnf. I will be unhauling this book pronto.
