I could not put this book down, it was an absolute page turner. The writing was riveting and beautiful. It captivated so much emotion and information. The book flowed like very few books I’ve ever read. Content warning: animal abuse, sexual violence, emotional and physical abuse. There were huge sections of this book I had to skip. Because it was too dark. There was an entire chapter about a tiger, and an animal menagerie that I had to skip. And I would definitely proceed with caution when reading this book. But I thought it was brilliant and absolutely loved it.
