The part where Mary arrives in another world and meets those creatures: what.

I really do not like not finishing books and ESPECIALLY not since I’ve come so far already, but I’m reaaally struggling.

I’m also quite done with the many slaughterings and torturings of animals/deamons (but in animal form), thank you. It might only take just one more for me to quit this book after all.

There have been quite a few strange occurrences in this book but Idk if I can stomach the fact that one of the characters literally eats the body of his dear deceased friend (and I don’t even care that it’s a bear)??? Have to put the book away for at least a day lol. What the hell.

The Subtle Knife: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ (I would give it 2.5 stars actually, but since that is impossible… 2 stars feels too low. But I enjoyed this part considerably less than the first part of the book :-()
