Consumed

That was so, so good.

I struggle to keep up with novels that have a lot of characters because I'm terrible with names of fictional characters and while this one had a lot of characters in different places the chapters were short and the changes always accompanied with a reminder of the location so it didn't get too confusing for me.

The story moves along at a steady clip, but the sense of impending doom, reinforced by the authors pulling no punches, is absolutely unrelenting. It was a hard to put down page turner for me.

Disclosure: my nonfiction read while I was reading this book was about the science of plant intelligence (Planta Sapiens by Paco Calvo), so it really made for an interesting time, highly recommend the combo!
