Das tat weh. Ich glaube nicht, dass ich dieses Buch so schnell vergessen kann. Es ist so unglaublich, brutal, aggressiv, verzweifelt, verwirrt und liebevoll. Es steckt voller Verluste und Entscheidungen und (falscher) Informationen von Menschen, die man sein Leben lang kennt. Es geht um Neuanfänge, die unerwartet schief gehen, sprechende Hunde, die verstummt werden (der Hauptcharakter ist kein John Wick aber die beiden würden sich sicher verstehen) und (das) Unbekannte, was als Feind angesehen wird. Es ist unfassbar schlimm und ich bin so schockiert. Warum zur Hölle lese ich so etwas gerade eben?
Ich weiß nicht, ob ich diese Geschichte weiterempfehlen würde, ich bezweifle es, warum sollte ich andere leiden sehen wollen, nicht in diesem Ausmaß!
Ich mag dieses Buch nicht, es ist ist so kreativ und überzeugend gestaltet aber für mich zu heftig. Ich respektiere es aber. Es ist ein starkes Werk. Es hat mich nur ziemlich geschafft.
"Doing what's right should be easy. It shouldn't be just another big mess like everything else."

- Todd seems like a very unlikable but realistic character. His development is super nice to see during the story and his perseverance is jawdropping
- The poor grammar and dialect seemed odd at first, but I quickly got used to it and thought of it as normal, because the narration is Todd’s thoughts. We’re reading it as the characters hear it
- Kept me on my toes the whole time. So many moments of diverted expectations. I never knew what would happen
- Viola was my fav character cuz she’s the most logical and relatable to me I guess?
- The author did a good job of almost making me sympathize with Todd wanting to kill Aaron. Almost justified his rage and murderous intent
- Manchee did not deserve to die. What the fuck
- Ending also. What the fuck
Overall a good read. Hoping to continue the series when I’m able
