The Last Thing to Burn by Will Dean

4.0

A book that is both fast-paced yet feels like it drags on forever. In this book you are following the life of the main character who is a woman who has been taken against her will and held in a home by a sociopathic disheveled pig farmer.

The book reads like a slow torture. You really get a feel for what each long day is like in the main character shoes, size 11 old and worn out.

This book is not for the faint of heart. The author does a good job about putting you in the moment without being too descriptive however, the subject matter is pretty tough.

This book explores what the human spirit will do in order to save the ones they love. What you are willing to endure in order to protect yourself in those around you.

I did get sucked in right from the beginning and kept reading because I really wanted to see how the story went end. The author does a great job with character development and really makes you love certain characters and viscerally hate other characters.
