Sometimes this book was so hyper-focused on its attempts to be gross that it felt like a pissing contest the author had with herself to for which chapter could be the most excessive in cruelty. That aside, it was still a really compelling story and definitely kept me on the edge of my seat. If you're vegetarian and want to feel good about it I recommend this book lol. The ending was disappointing :I
