challenging dark mysterious reflective sad slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

5.0

This books as extremely well written, even with the translation into English the prose were powerful and full of emotion. While none of the main characters are exactly loveable they win you over and I loved the moral delemma it left you in. As a vegetarian I found this a great look into how some people view animals and how much it hurts not to be valued. Really interesting read.
