I think I would also enjoy this book. I'll love to explore the issues of an obese teenager's saga and serial kill. These trill and tension inducing

A one-of-a-kind combination of weight and murders! From both perspectives, this sounds like an intriguing story. A serial killer who preys on obese people.

First of all, I find it funny that Darwin only targets obesse people. Barton seems to be going through a lot because of his weight, especially as a teenager. He is more prone to a lot of body shaming, especially from his peers. This indeed is an exciting read. Great review.

Quite a good story. Too much weight can cause a lot of damage and likewise prevent one from engaging in physical activities. I love the review.

This sounds like an interesting plotline. The characters are multidimensional and unique, and the author addresses some weighty (no pun intended) issues about how prevalent fam-shaming is in our society. I hope the main character gets the help that he needs. Thanks for the lovely review.

The plot is very intriguing and new. I’m looking forward to digging into this suspense novel to find out how Jeremy and the serial killer Darwin will meet and how it will end. Even the lawsuit involving the food industry is interesting. Nice front cover.

What an interesting concept! The cover really captures the overlapping themes of obesity and serial murder. It's nice to hear that the book is well-paced and that the characters are full and interesting. Thanks for the great review!

I’ve never heard of a book targeted around obesity, and while I’m sure it’s interesting I don’t think it’s a book for me. Great review though!

I love psychological thrillers! The cover of this book is very interesting; so too is the premise. Your analysis of Sue's character was a highlight of your review, which I enjoyed and thank you for.
