I loved everything about this book. A friend had been trying to get me to read it forever and I kept putting it off and had to go to her with my tail between my legs to tell her she was right. From the first time I heard Marcellus's narration to the last page I was hooked. I have the unpopular opinion of not hating Cameron. I was skeptical of him at first, but I truly loved all the character development in this story. I would love to see this turn into a series. It very much reminds me of The One and Only Ivan, but for adults
