The concept was great, but I didn't love the execution. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't great for me. The whole story felt a bit shallow, and I probably won't be reading the sequels. There was also a lot of casual fatphobia thrown in there, which definitely made the reading experience worse.
Graphic: Child death, Confinement, Death, Gore, Kidnapping, Murder, and Violence
Moderate: Body shaming and Fatphobia
