While I enjoyed the stories, this publication is way too hard to find. Instead I'm going to try to collect the stories individually.

Not by the author, too obscure, too hard to find.

It was cute, but nothing special. It was understandably simple, but not enough to hold up to an adult audience.

Seemed juvenile and a little cringe/over the top.

Characters were juvenile and unlikable. While premise was exciting writing was boring and annoying.

Carnivore centric with complex recipes. While some of the trivia about the show would be interesting, I prefer cookbooks that I can utilize myself.

Boring. It literally took 50-80 pages for the book to start. It was too high fantasy to relate to and I didn’t care about any of the characters. Furthermore, I didn’t like the rigid and backwards/highly gendered society they described.

Content was made for children and overly simplistic.
