With strong character development, I felt I really got to know Jessa and quickly became absorbed in her story. The backdrop of taxidermy creates a colourful, quirky texture to the whole tale.
Parts of the story made me feel uncomfortable, personally - references to killing animals in cruel ways - which I thought were unnecessary to the story. I also felt the ending was slightly unsatisfying, but can’t really put my finger on exactly why.
Nevertheless, it was an enjoyable and easy read!
Moderate: Animal cruelty and Animal death
