I will need to return to this at a different time. I'm only 6.5 pages in and blood has been mentioned or inferred 23 times already and I just don't think I can handle the rest of this book at the moment.

DNF'd for medical content. It's a shame, because I was enjoying this quirky book but I can't handle the descriptions of bodily issues at the moment.

I've decided to catch up on the short stories first before continuing this book. I have really enjoyed what I've read so far, but I feel that I need a bit more backstory/orientation to this world.

I loved the concept of this story and the deadpan sarcasm, but I did not enjoy how the main character treated her “friends” and I find the chapters are exhaustingly long (a stupid thing, but we’ve only made it to chapter 3 and we’re on page 100). After a week of not picking it back up, it's time to put it aside for (maybe) later.
