dark mysterious sad

3.0

This book was beautifully written with interesting and complex characters but holy shit do not pursue this if you are averse to animal death. Pretty much every animal that is introduced dies in a gruesome and graphic way. Extremely depressing but in ways I was not expecting nor I think in ways that furthered the plot.
