I'm really disappointed in this one as it was one of my most anticipated books of 2022 so of course I waited until November 2023 to pick it up just to be disappointed. 

Thirty-two pages in and so much happened, yet the scene wasn't set. Where are the details on why book eaters have two sets of teeth? Why mind eaters have long tongues? Why do these "families" not get along like they're crime organizations.
