Ordinary Monsters was both a slow and fast read for me. The actual reading went quite quickly but I found the story progressed quite slowly until the last 150 pages or so and then it took right off. The end sets us up for a sequel and I haven't yet decided if I will read the next book as I was not pulled into the story enough to automatically pick up the next one. Also, throughout the book we really get into some horror territory especially body-horror.
Minor: Body horror
