I didn't exactly know what to expect when I started the book. The beautiful cover intrigued me and I'm glad I bought it!
The story was so disturbing and eye-opening what people with extremist mindsets can be capable of.
But in between all of the horrible aspects of the world, Benji found a family where he was safe and could feel at home.
The Watch and the other people at ALC where such lovely people and Benji learning to trust them was sk lovely.
If you don't like body horror of any kind, I don't think you should read this book, but if you want to try something a bit different, go for it! It's so good and can't wait to read more from this author.
