caprivoyant's review against another edition
1.5
It's hard for me to tell if this is a criticism for the book itself or just for the audio version, but this book was just "ok" for me. I read it with my honey through a number of car trips, and it never really got thrilling? I think maybe if I wasn't expecting a thriller, I could have gotten more into the book...? But, then again, maybe not. The narrator of this book sounded bored. And it made me bored. So maybe I wouldn't have liked it at all no matter what. 😐
Is this the experience with the physical book? I have no idea. I think I would have added emotion to the text version of this book if I were reading the pages instead of listening to a voice actor's interpretations of this one. But maybe the main character is just flat anyway? I HAVE NO IDEA!

⚠ Some of the Content Warnings for this book, I don't really know how to put in the section below. So I'll start here and do my best in that section down there. Taxidermy! Dead animals (they're not being killed in the book, they're just dead), fatphobia, eco-terrorism, death of parents (mentioned), child abuse, murder (some in self-defense), infidelity, medical content, fighting/gore-ish, and poking eyes out/maiming of taxidermied things?!??! What is the CW for that?!
Moderate: Fatphobia, Blood, Medical content, Stalking, and Murder
Minor: Animal death, Death of parent, and Child abuse
