I’m really not sure what to make of the book. The prose was so over the top, I found it distracting. The lengthy descriptions of the characters’ bodies and bodily fluids was also way too descriptive. The premise was interesting, but I found myself wanting *MORE*. I realize the plot isn’t the point of the book, but it felt incomplete to me.
