"The Monstrumologist," while being without a doubt one of the goriest books I've ever read, is amazingly well-written and has strong characters. Will Henry is a child balancing between the metal state of a scared little boy who wants to be loyal to his fathers memory and stay with Dr. Warthrop (who he secretly is scared of and has thought of running away more than once), and an adult who is trying to help the community and putting his life on the line in the process. There is plot twist after gory plot twist, with the author certainly not skimping out on the bloody details! An amazing book that stays with your thoughts for days to come!
