This book was so good with description but so, SO fucked up. I think it hit every trigger ever made. I had to keep reading it anyway though

makennaseitz's review against another edition

I tried so hard to keep going, I really did. But after all of the shit. Literal shit. And holes, actual holes, and the things with the cows and the things done to the cows. Just. Magnificently terrifying.
