I saw a lot of praise for this book online and was looking forward to reading it as it seemed like a unique take on horror as well as some degree of social commentary. That being said, I did not enjoy it as much as many other reviewers did. I liked the tense atmosphere created, but that was about it.
Graphic: Animal cruelty, Animal death, Rape
Minor: Homophobia
