pickThis is a dystopian novel in which cannibalism is legalized due to a virus making animal meat poisonous to humans. The scary thing is I could see something like this possibly happening. This is a dark story and I‘ll admit the characters aren‘t really likable….but the story was unique enough with effective world-building to the point it kept my attention with a twist or two I wasn‘t expecting at the end!
pickAt one point during my reading, I put the text down, turned to my spouse, and said "This is a profoundly f*cked up book." That's about all that needs to be said.
pick26/2025 Cannibalism. It brings up horrible images, Hannibal Lector and his fava beans, but humans and animals have a long history of cannibalism, for survival, for medicinal reasons, for rituals, for conquest, and sadly for pleasure in some. Fortunately, the author sticks to the scientific reasons, and isn't lured into the sensational aspect with serial killers like Jeffery Dahmer and Ed Gein.

so-soIn my opinion, this book was overhyped. I felt like instead of creating a great story for this dystopian world, the author focused mostly on how to make the next chapter more disturbing/disgusting than the last. Although I didn‘t completely hate it, I didn‘t love it either 🤷🏾♂️⭐️⭐️⭐️
panThis borderlines violence for the sake of violence. Maybe that‘s THE POINT, but I‘m just not pessimistic enough for this I guess. Disturbing. 2/5
pickThis book. This Book! OH MY GOD THIS BOOK! I devoured it (see what I did there 😝). Read it in a day and can‘t stop thinking about it. (57)
⭐️: 4.75/5
pickIts a dystopian novel, for that note it does a good job of painting a bleak alternative society. It‘s descriptive of certain scenes which definitely impacted me. A non filtered book, with an ending that accompanies the bleakness of the setting itself.
