I think this book fell short because it def didn't keep my attention and at time i found it boring.

It kinda gave me a zombie vibe with the young boy and his genetic condition that kept him wanting food. It didn't seem to engage and the current state when you read the book. The character development fell flat.

Was just ok for me not sure i would read more from this author.

Thanks NetGalley for letting me read and review.

Pink Slime is not an action packed read, in fact at times it's quite meditative. Our narrator is attempting to navigate her life in the thick of a pandemic that has destroyed the world's food supply while taking care of a young boy that has a genetic condition which keeps him ravenous. She navigates her relationship with her estranged mother, with her terminal ex husband, with herself. We don't hear much about the early days of this pandemic, nor do we dive deep into the logistics on how the world functions in its current state. What we do get is a lot of self reflection from our unnamed character.
