Because I skimmed through the answers when deciding whether to read this book myself (which I did) and I now disagree with most of the answers!! If you don’t like books in which animals die, or suffer in any way, DO NOT read this. Not giving any spoilers here, just want to mention that there are several sections in which animal suffering is explicitly mentioned in the book and I don’t understand some of the other answers here at all. I didn’t hate the book but would not read it had I known this beforehand. (less)
