The entire first half of the book is world building, and this world is f*cked and let’s just say I’ve never been more happy to be a vegan while reading a book.
The rest of the plot seemed really disjointed and rushed. I know there’s probably deep messages about humanity, loss, and grief, but the graphic cannibalism over shadowed that a bit, you know?

The people saying the ending was a "twist" don't know how to read imo. The book does a good job of building Marcos, showing you who he is, who he thinks he is, how he fits into the world.

Mi hermana me recomendo este libro. He sido vegetariana desde hace 2 años ya, y mi hermana sabía que disfrutaría este libro de una manera macabra.
Las descripciones de Bazterrica son de las cosas más grotescas que he leido en mi vida (en la mejor forma posible). Ese mundo distópico que creó no se siente tan lejano. Amo como algunas preguntas no se resuelven através de la historia, lo cual hizo que el libro se sientiera más real (?).
Los personajes están muy bien caracterizados. Amé como Bazterrica no nos tenía que decir como eran las personalidades de ciertos personajes, ella solo nos lo mostraba através de sus acciones.
De verdad me gustó esta novela, y la recomendaría a los lectores de estómago fuerte.
