Honestly, I was feeling meh about this book for a bit. Around the middle section, after Junior (the name I call the creature) explains his backstory, I just wasn't feeling it. It wasn't bad, and might not have been anything to do with the book itself. Either way, that section was a bit of a trudge to get through, but the book definitely stuck the landing, and the ending made me look back upon the sections I had deemed to be "weaker" in a different light.

This shit is sad, plain and simple. Really leaves you with a lot to think about too. All in all, I really enjoyed this one.
