A review by wilt
From the Belly by Emmett Nahil

4.0

while there was a lot that really worked for me, there are unfortunately quite a few typos and errors throughout this book. mostly small stuff, but some things really tripped me up, and I'm still not sure if Morrow was giving she/they realness or if their pronoun mixup was yet another error. there were also a few (again, small) things that felt unfinished or purposeless. and i can accept loose ends, especially in a story like this, but several times it felt like there was supposed to be more and then there just wasn't. 

but i still really liked it. flaws and all. there's some really good lines in here, and the whole whale ship setting felt very immersive. i enjoyed the queer horror spin and how it all unfolded. dont go in expecting a perfect book but if you like weird ocean horror, i would recommend this one.
