Read this for book club. I was expecting to really like this book, so was surprised when it took me a while to get into it. I found the rhythm of the short chapters too stop/starty and couldn't really get invested in the characters. There was too much violence for me, although I appreciate that is likely accurate to the time which the book was set.
