An odd little book. The concept was interesting, and it definitely made me feel all gross inside which is what I was after.

I understand that this is a short story so there wasn't space to expand on some stuff, but I wish it was a little longer to give more world building or explanations on some of the terminology as it wasn't quite clear. 

An interesting story so I'm glad I read it, but I wouldn't read it again. Will have a look at some of the authors other longer works though as I like their style.
