rachelem 's review for:

Zoo City by Lauren Beukes
4.0

An alternate reality where criminals are 'animalled'. I liked the idea in His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman and this is a different take on that idea. I liked how the world was presented as is so there wasn't lots of boring explanation going on. It did result in me feeling a little lost in the story at times but it didn't spoil my enjoyment of the book at all.
