This book disturbed me the most out of all of the ones in the series. I found Jodahs to be incredibly selfish. Like...Nikanj says things like "[I]n only a little time, they will be more willing to give up eating than give you up" and "[Humans] don't always have to know what we're doing." I find that so horrible.
And when Jodahs says, "Tomas wanted desperately to withdraw from me and from Aaor. I put him to sleep and kept him with me. His presence would help Aaor whether he was conscious or not."
I just...ugh. This section, this whole book was really difficult for me to get through. I was uncomfortable with Jodahs the entire time. I wonder how I would have felt if it wasn't told in first-person.
