2.5
As the book is so short, it was difficult to get to know or really care about Parker & some of his decisions were strange. Parker's naiveite & youthful enthusiasm lead him astray & disaster is only narrowly averted initially. I can't imagine being that gullible to be honest. The writing style was okay but I think a slightly longer book may have fleshed out the characters more & given the reader more time to actually connect with the main character. It was a gripping read but can't say I actually enjoyed reading it due to some of the subject matter (trigger warnings below). 2.5 stars (rounded down).
TWs: suicide, sexual assault, animal cruelty/death, coarse language.
