readingthething's review against another edition

Had not checked the themes, and I can't deal with a pedoohilia plot at the moment, especially not as an audiobook read aloud by a male voice.

judythedreamer's review against another edition

So glad the course changed up which book we have to read. The fact that there's no paragraphs at all, made it hard to read. The subject matter itself was quite tough and I disliked all the veterinary terminology being used to explain his pedophilic interests.

evaverm's review against another edition

De manier van schrijven kon me niet meenemen in het verhaal, alsook het verhaal zelf zorgde ervoor dat ik me moeilijk kon inleven in het verhaal.

Een prachtig, vreselijk, meeslepend en moeilijk boek.

De schrijfstijl is fantastisch, maar het verhaal is misselijkmakend--opzettelijk zo. Ik wilde het snel uithebben omdat de schrijfstijl erom vraagt om halsoverkop gelezen te worden, maar ik haastte ook door omdat ik wilde dat het verhaal voorbij was, omdat ik de weerzinwekkende gedachten van de hoofdpersoon niet langer aan kon. 

Absoluut geen prettig of makkelijk boek, maar wel meesterlijk gedaan. Het maakt me nieuwsgierig naar wat Rijneveld nog meer gaat schrijven.

Gruwelijk, Lolita-esque en het hield mijn aandacht tot het einde vast.
