Wow… That ending. I completely thought that this book was just going to be a commentary on eating meat in modern Society… However it seems like there's a whole lot more to it. I think I'm going to need a week or two to digest and figure out what all of the themes actually are. Holy moly… This book will stick with you forever and not completely in a good way. Eeek! 😦
