4.0
A very readable short story collection from a diverse array of animal perspectives. Themes of attachment, death/loss, and change. The animal perspectives we largely as if animals thought just like humans, which is less creative/novel than I was expecting.
Graphic: Animal death and Death
Moderate: War and Violence
Minor: Blood, Gun violence, and Injury/Injury detail
