The book being told from the pov of a dog was interesting, although sometimes it was just really awkward and too forced. It was also obviously much more about the humans and their DRAMATIC ass story than it was dog, and that's a bummer really.

There was also one part concerning sexual assault that I just could not handle, and the victim blaming after the fact really made my skin crawl.
