I really enjoyed the writing style of the author. I don’t often find myself enjoying first person narratives but from the very first page I was hooked. The beginning of the story starts of really slow and I found myself struggling through it but once you hit the main action things start to pick up.
Minor: Blood and Animal cruelty
There are a few moments where large amounts of blood and a bit of gore are mentioned. There are also a few other moments where the death of various animals are mentioned.
