I was a little unsure after the first couple of chapters as it seemed oddly visceral. However, I am glad I stuck with it. The perspective seems oddly removed as the book progresses, but you don't lose sight of any of the characters.

Overall this hovers at about a 3.5 for me as I loved the writing and characters, but it is not something I am planning to re-read.

I did read an ARC provided by the publisher.
