Devolution: A Firsthand Account of the Rainier Sasquatch Massacre by Max Brooks
2.5
adventurous dark emotional mysterious reflective sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes
The book was an interesting read, but it's not something I would read again. It spent way too long describing nature. I was starting to get bored (listening to this at 2.6x speed) until the first encounter which took way too long. Nature is great and all, but multiple chapters having a character describe it was too much. I also think the "eruption" was kind of unnecessary. It didn't add anything to the story beyond being an excuse to have the town be left alone for a week.
