I read it twice. I felt lonely, disgusting, slimy, traitor to humanity I couldn't look someone in the eyes. Claustrophobic, cold and hot at the same time. In my mind, it felt like the world was cold and lifeless even if the sun was shining and the sky was blue nothing seems cheerful.
i honestly haven’t seen anyone in any review mentioning the scene where Marcos is playing with the puppies and they bite and scratch at him. if you’ve played rough with a puppy you know they draw blood or at the very least break skin. but marcos never got sick. so his idea that the virus is a lie is kind of confirmed by that at least to some extent
@@GhostintheStacks ikr! that scene really stood out to me bc i was so anxious abt him getting sick afterwards and i was kinda waiting for that shoe to drop but it never did. there was also a similar scene later on where one of the teens who killed the puppies got bit and all his friends freaked out and his response was to say it was a government lie.

Great review! One of my favourite books I have read last year and even months later I am still thinking about it
Thank you! I can already feel that this is a story that’s going to stick with me. The entire ending sequence was so haunting and sad

Love this book! Awesome review:)
Thank you! I really love this book too. It’s such a beautiful and horrific story 💀
Great review. I didn't really know what to expect with this book but didnt expect the domestication. Its special meat, lets go sbt our day
For real! Everyone is just like “well, let’s not think about it too much. Just make sure to order hamburgers for our party!”
@@GhostintheStacks I was laughing out loud when the guy delivered the "gift" and told Marcos to hold onto her for a few days and they will have a BBQ
