Wow, this book is a lot of things. It doesn’t feel right to call a story about pointless child murder amazing, but this is certainly an interesting read. Not knowing who you can trust, who will die and who will survive. Some things about this story are a bit off, but overall it’s a book with an interesting commentary on society, and trusting each other, along with the fragility of life.
