I ended up feeling very meh about this book. Joseph's POV was entirely unnecessary, and many of the characters felt underdeveloped. The setting change mid-book also seemed unnecessary. 
Also, I have a strong stomach, but apparently I can't deal with rampant
pet death
. I also couldn't stand tiny M, when he was
a freaking lung with a tail! Lung tissue is spongy and gross, so this alone made me want to gag. And then he balloons like a wood tick when he eats his victims. Nope.

I did like getting M's POV at the end, but the conclusion did not ultimately leave me satisfied.
