I've heard and read so many different things about this book, I was excited to get into it - and it didn't disappoint!
If you don't like splatter, gore and brutality, this book is not for you. But if you don't mind those things, you're in for an engaging story that has a lot to say about our modern world, some biting social commentary, a bit of satire, with interesting characters who all feel authentic and real, who are flawed and learn and sometimes also don't. Felker-Martin has a lot to say and she says it in a unique voice.

I'm not sure if I am giving this book 4 or 5 stars, which usually means I should have eye-read it (in which case it would have been 5 stars) and not listened to it (in which case it gets 4 stars).
