i guessed the way this book was going to end when the female showed up, and i was right. i heard so much good stuff about this book but i was just bored like the only time i felt something was when the puppies got killed, the mc is an asshole and honestly are meat eaters that against meat alternatives that they will be like yea cannibalism is a go! i wish nothing but the worse for everyone of these characters
